HOTW: Grizzly and Cupid Peak

Alright, I know this is definitely not the easiest hike out there but if you're looking for a challenging hike to get the legs burning, this one's a winner! I normally love being below the tree line but with the colder weather settling in lately I picked this guy to really get more out into the sun to keep warm (but don't forget the extra sunscreen because I definitely didn't bring enough and got burnt, burnt). The nice thing about this hike also is that you don't necessarily have to do the entire thing! Truly just the drive up has immaculate views and if you want to pack a breakfast/lunch and only walk in a couple hundred feet, you'll still have the feeling of accomplishment doing just that with this intense incline. It's worth it, I promise! Go check it out for yourself (:
