Hiking – Mt Galbraith

Part of the series of easy - moderate hikes on Saturdays. This hike is a lollipop hike around Mt Galbraith, with a trip to the summit as well. There are steep and rocky spots.

  • Moderate
  • Mileage: 4.5 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 1,000 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 7,250 ft
  • Pace: 1.5 - 2.0 mph

This hike will get us outside and our hearts pumping.  I expect that we will complete the hike before lunch.

There are some steeper spots and rocky spots on the trail.  We will keep a 1.5 - 2 mph pace, so if you like to hike fast, know that you'll have to stay with the group.

I will send out an email a few days before the hike with a map and additional information.

We will start early to finish before it gets too hot, and before lunch. 

Meet at Mt Galbraith Park at 7:15 am for a 7:30 am start.  Parking is free at this location.
