Breakneck Ridge Rock Scramble shock
Hiking and Rock Scrambing are dangerous. We do not charge for this event and we are not a professional group. You participate completley your own risk.

The distance will be 4 miles. Keep in mind that even though the distances sound short, this hike is a workout! Lots of elevation, ups and downs.
4 mile hike which takes about 4 hours to complete including lunch.

***This is some of the more strenuous hiking in the area, located a little north of Cold Spring. ***
Please bring 4 bottles of water, snacks, LUNCH and appropriate hiking shoes.
