Claremont Loop (7/12/15, 11:36:59AM)
Relatively moderate hike.
Upon arriving, You are presented w 2 trail options. (Both lead you back to the starting location).
The left option: Provides the best views, but it does so while in direct sunlight since there's little to no shade.
The right option: Has about 1/2 mile worth of shade. Within 3/4 mile into the trail, you will pass through a section that contains many trees along its path. Due to their proximity, a canopy is formed greeting you with a fair amount of shade and cooler temperature. However, it does so at the expense of no panorama views.
There's also 4 Porta potties distributed along the way.
