Butler gulch loop hike

Let's go for a mid week hike in Beautiful Butler gulch. We will follow a creek past some nice waterfalls,then above treeline, passing two old mine ruins, then follow a narrow trail to a ridge. Then cruise up and down to the summit of Mt Hocus. From there off-trail back to the old mine road and back to our cars. I hope we can all celebrate our success together at a fun restaurant after. It's a 5 mile, 1200 ft elevation gain stroll. Please reimburse drivers for gas. I recommend $10. Carpool meeting place is Wooly mammoth, section DD at 9:30 am
