The view from Nichols Ledge is quite something. Getting to this view was an interesting experience. Driving a rented mini-van, I braved some questionable 'roads' to get to the trailhead, then a half-mile hike up steep terrain (and I'm not in nearly good enough shape for that) had me questioning all my life choices. But this view when reaching the top was absolutely worth it.
I intended to stay through sunset, but once the sun started going down, the entire scene was shrouded in shadow, making it pointless. Next time I'll drive a 4x4 and spend a lot more time here.
