Parked at Cerro Grande Trail lot at 8am on Friday (0 cars). Crossed 4 and headed south on small trail. First half of hike is in pine first with burned trees. Trail is close to a forest service road with some traffic noise. Then you get to a loop in new aspen growth. The trail has no views here and gets claustrophobic. Signs or deer/elk but saw none. This trail is not worth doing again.
