Description

TRAMPS-R-US-800x445

 

A hike to the Guardsmen on Tranquille Creek.

  • We will start at the Tranquille Creek parking lot and hike up the trail past the reservoir.
  • From the creek, we will pick a gully and hike the steep terrain to the ridge
  • Continue along the rim to a viewpoint above The Guardsmen
  • Descend the adjacent gully to the creek and surrounding canyon
  • Lunch in the canyon
  • Depending upon water levels some exploration upstream may be possible
  • Return via the rim back to our vehicles

We will be climbing and descending some steep gullies with loose footing so a good level of fitness and balance is required.  In addition some low level scrambling may be encountered.  Sturdy footwear is required.  Poles may be helpful.

Bring water, lunch and dress for the weather.
