Spruce Mountain ~5.5 mi Lollipop

We're heading back up to Larkspur for this popular trek!

We will make our way out of the parking lot to hang a left onto the Oak Trail, which will wind us up to the main Spruce Mountain Trail. Once we climb to the top notch, we are afforded a wonderful view south over Palmer and the local area. We continue west from here and split right to hike a loop around to another spectacular overlook facing west. Continuing around, we close our loop back at the Spruce Mtn Trail and back down the mountain to the parking lot.

Total elevation gain ~580'

This is a popular local hike, mix of wooded and open trail. Dogs allowed on leash. Hope to see you all there!

Lunch post-hike in Monument is always an option :).
