Itinerary description

Follow the trail from the. Top of the Garcia Pass. This is quite a long hike and can be difficult on a hot day. There are places to fill but the last large forested area is the last place to fill for water. Sunscreen is a must as there is virtually no shade.

    Sleeping Beauty is a great trail, it is tough but views from over 1300m are spectacular, take a lot of water and fill up at the stream near the forest before ascending.
