Iron Mountain via Ellie Lane Trail

Distance: 9.5 miles

Elevation Gain: 1600 ft

Hike Difficulty : 7/10

Let's start off early Saturday morning hike and enjoy the rest of the day!

We will start at Ellie Laine Trailhead that will lead to iron mountain peak, then get to the parking lot taking a loop. This is a long hike, so please consider if you are comfortable with the length of the hike. There are also a couple of up and downs, which will be more difficult than usual hike.

We will stop three times, at Table Rock, at Ramona Overlook, and the junction that meet with iron mountain trail. There is no sign at the Ramona Overlook. ( Please let me know if you know exact spot.)

There are a couple of junction on the way with no sign. If you are ahead and don't know where to go, please wait for me. If you are way behind me, I try to leave some mark so you can find it where to go.

About 2 miles from the trailhead, there is a T junction. You have to take a left, and continue to the Ellie Lane Trail.

What to bring: Lot's of water ( minimum 2 liters), a light snack, electrolytes, sunblock, hiking poles and hat

Dog: on leash on iron mountain trail, not sure on the Ellie Lane Trail
