Let's stay close to home and hop up to Shortoff Mountain! With beautiful views every where you land on Shortoff we will have a gorgeous fall, relaxing day. We will gradually ascend and see so many beautiful shots of the gorge. We will spend 45 minutes to an hour up on the summit soaking in rays and building bonds.

Please bring water as water can be sketchy on this section - and bring a nice snack to eat and enjoy nature in.
