**Early Departure** The trail winds and switchbacks steadily upwards through forest with few opportunities to catch your breath. The tree cover doesn't allow for many viewpoints along the way but the summit boasts a full panorama of prairie, foothills, and nearby peaks. Have a snack at the summit take our photos and then head back down. We'll do lunch in back in Town I aim to back mid afternoon latest. If you can manage Prairie Mountain summit in 1.5 hours you'll be fine for pace. You might see me trotting downhill.
