Trail Stats

Highline Trail

Climbs 3,500' about 4 miles

Description

Bishops Cap is along the pinnacle wall which separates the West and East of the American Continent.  Bishops cap is in between Mount Gould and Pollock Mountain.  We started from the weeping wall and used a trail that is no longer maintained, but which allows for quick access to the Highline Trail.  A drainage gully was used till we reached the ridge.  The final finish is an exhilarating Exposed about 100 feet of scrambling on Good Rock.  A fall there would surely be fatal.  Beautiful views are all around.
