View from Cathedral Rock looking west about three hours before sunset. Parking is in a very small lot off of Back O Beyond Road. If you hang around a few minutes, you’ll be able to catch people leaving pretty quickly though—not nearly as many people who park decide to hike all the way to the top. iPhone 5.

Without a HEAVY DUTY 4×4 to cover the first mile of the hike (which is a limited access dirt road–for good reason…), the hike will be about 60-70minutes in each direction–if moving at a decent clip. iPhone 5s.

Legit, a family in front of me took pics with a four year old, and a college chick did a cartwheel. While I’m not as crazy, I was able to venture to the other side.
