We will hike up the Old Mill trail to the Mason Creek then on to the Overlooks Loop. We will enjoy the views from the Eagle Cliffs Overlook, Pikes Peak overlook, and the Catamount Overlook. At that time depending on trail conditions we will either go back through the overlooks or finish the small loop before descending the Old Mill trail.
