Pinnacle National Park - Condor Gulch trail to High peaks trail 6.5 miles, 1600ft


Condor Gulch trail to High peaks trail 6.5 miles, 1600ft

This park is opened by Obama a few years back. It’s 2 hr drive one way. We started of early around 6.30am. By the time we reach the park it was 8.30am. In any places it was written that parking is not easy to get after 9 am or so. Considering it’s long weekend it’s a chance we took. The park ranger at the entrance said the parking lot most likely to be filled in. We anyway went ahead and luckily there few spots available. The hike moderately easy other than few sections where one need to climb giant steps and no room for any mistakes. The terrain and rock formations were so beautiful. Apparently this park is famous for rock climbing and we have seen many rock climbers in our hike. We could also spot few Condors. It was a nice getaway and was fun going into the caves.
