“Steep climb to the top of Kessler Peak.”
— Whitney Durham
Features
Cave · Views
Description
Then again near the top is a second mine shaft just off the trail. The second mine shaft is really interesting. After a short down climb you can follow the mine shaft through the mountain and emerge on the other side. From the top of the trail you get amazing views of a number of the peaks around you. This trail is steep and the climb is unrelenting.
