First time up! What an experience!
Steven and Katie were superb guides, both knowledgeable and caring for this sacred place.
From the aromatic Hosmer Grove's cedar, ecalyptus and pine trees to the landscape of the Sliding Sands trail into the crater and the lower switchback trail to Rainbow bridge, there were stunning views and vistas around every bend.
I was truly touched by this powerful and mystical place.
Thank you, Steven and Katie!!!
