Bill & Marion Certain Trail
This is a moderate hike to the view. It varies between flat and hilly. The trail is well marked except for after making it almost to the top of the hill before it becomes flat again. There is an unmarked fork in the trail that leads to nowhere that veers off to the left. It will feel like you are going in the opposite direction of your end destination (for those of you directionally inclined). You should follow the trail to the right uphill. In the winter, you have a beautiful view of the surrounding mountains.
West Loop Trial/Certain Trail
There is a split in Certain Trail and West Rim Trail. This is a loop. I suggest taking 1 trail there and the other trail back!
Power Line Trail
The Power line trail connects Certain Trail and West Rim Trail and the views on the west side of the mountain and the east side of the mountain. Both are spectacular! When you are done, finish the loop and follow Certain Trail back to the parking lot.
