"1.4 miles r/t w/480' gain from Kanan Dume Rd Backbone TH (TH:1530') - Made a loop out of this hike - ascended Backbone Trail south from TH, paralleling Kanan Dume Road. Trail was overgrown past (above and west of) the tunnel, but it is easy enough to follow to the high point. Good views of Castro Peak (east) and surrounding terraced farmland along the way and from the summit. On the return I stayed with an easier trail that descended slowly and eventually rejoined the south-bound Backbone Trail about 10 yards from the TH sign at the south end of the parking lot. Return route is the much easier, shorter, preferred route to and from the peak." — BradStemm • Jul 19, 2014
