We'll take the Brook Trail to Crater Lake (Tumbledown Pond), before descending along the Parker Ridge Trail. At the bottom, we'll take the Little Jackson Connector back to our vehicles at the Brook Trailhead. As we hike, we'll discuss all things Tumbledown: geology, trees and plants, history, wildlife, and current issues facing the mountain.
