The Eagle Cliff Trail above the cliffs section
Route: Eagle Cliff Trail, (Eagle Cliff), Eagle Cliff Trail
On my way back from Mt. Prospect, I saw cloud over that seemed like it would warrant a decent sunset.
Jogging some of the flats, I was able to make decent time up to Eagle Cliff (via the direct cliffs route instead of the bypass). While it was a decent sunset, I didn't get the glow or lake reflection I was hoping for. Nonetheless, it was a good display.
