| Comments: |
Greeley Ponds Trail is significantly more difficult than the trail from Tripoli Rd, but a fun trail nonetheless. It is quite serene, and keeps you engaged with plenty of streams, and steep rocky sections. A lot of scenic spots along the route, too. The Chimney was a little tough, and you definitely have to use your hands as well, but nothing impossible or too frightening. I can see it being dangerous when wet or rainy. There were a couple sections of ice left, but everything is totally avoidable. Spikes not required. |
