Octo Hike – Mount Falcon - West TH

OCTO HIKE - Mount Falcon West TH - route Parmalee Gulch, Devil's Elbow, Castle Trail This is an Octogenarian (Octo) Hike for those who have aged out of normal CMC hikes, or anyone who finds CMC's traditional Easy hikes more than they want or can do. Octo Hikes are slower paced, have shorter distances, less elevation gain, and more frequent stops than typical Easy A hikes. We also normally stop for snacks at picnic tables, where available, or social lunch at a local cafe after the hike (details TBA).
