Skyline Ridge Trail
The Skyline Ridge Trail travels up the center ridge in the Upper Shannon Creek watershed. It is a direct line up to the alpine between Sky Pilot and Goat Ridge and encompasses some of the most beautiful terrain in the area. Skyline Ridge Trail offers views of Goat Ridge, the granite dome of Mount Habrich and the high alpine peaks around Sky Pilot Mountain. Due to the extended end of the marked trail finish, people should expect the last 10 - 15 trail tags to alternate between traditional trail tags and painted tags on rocks.
