Ever since I read about the reopening of Sycamore Canyon, I have wanted to hike it. Maps and information online are not terribly helpful, so when my friend, Susan, offered to show me the way, I jumped at the chance. We walked over to the Thompson Creek Trail from her house and found the trailhead (which is the part I was pretty sure I could find).
I had heard that it was a pretty steep uphill start, so I was prepared for that mentally as well as physically. I still feel pretty good after our time at high altitude in Peru, so maybe my blood cells are still oxygen-rich. Anyway, this is a perfect alternative to the now-crazybusy Wilderness Park Trail. We saw about 6 other people during our 70-minute hike, and when the skies are less hazy, the views will be even better.
