This was a very quick hike. The red trail is right off the road and hooks up with the blue trail almost immediately, which quickly climbs to the Stone Living Room. It was a great way to reconnect with some friends and take some silly pictures!
Follow the road very shortly to the trailhead.
The trailhead starts right after a creek crossing. The red trail climbs a little and then forms a junction with the blue trail, which we turned right onto.
We may have dropped a cutout of our friend...
A couple photos along the red trail.
Hopping onto the blue trail...
The blue trail climbs for a short distance to the overlook.
Some photos along the rocky summit of the Tourne Mountain. From here we stopped following the trail and followed a short, unmarked path to the stone living room. We stayed there for a while and had a chance to catch up and take some photos.
From here we followed the same route back.
Same route back. Great short hike!
