Description

Accessed from the 59th Ave parking lot, Sunrise Trail (H-4) connects with Ridgeline. The trail is fairly mellow until turning into a short, steep peak loop at the top. This peak access trail is by far the least difficult of the "Thunderbird 3" (in length, steepness and difficulty). It proves a fun little trail with pretty cool views and is fairly technical at the top.
