Essentially there are 4 large ravines or small gorges which you can travel through to get to the peak of these small mountains and enjoy a lovely view. But in this case the best part of the journey is definitely on the way up. What makes these trails so unique is the variety of ways which park rangers have devised for hikers to traverse their way to the top. There are metal ladders, wooden walkways made out of logs, metal or wooden bridges, small metal steps and chains attached to the rock walls for which to pull yourself along. Each spring season as the snow melts the waters pick up speed and power through the ravines moving rocks and logs around and in the process rearranging certain aspects of the trail. No problem. The rangers just create a new way for hikers to get through.
