Palmer/Section 16 ~5.5 mi loop

Details

We are heading back to Palmer/Section 16!

The first 2 miles is a steep uphill hike until we pop out at the top, with wonderful views south (making the steep climb worth it ☺️). From here we will begin our rolling descent, which will give us constant views along the way. Winding our way down to the valley floor, we end up on a wider trail. Here we take a left and head back to Gold Camp Road and the parking lot.

  • Tight parking. Please carpool.*

There is parking at the trailhead, and then another small off-road parking section just past this.

Dogs allowed on leash.

We hope to see you there!
