Oliver and I found refuge here when a group of goblins were on the hunt for us. I picked some wild flowers, put them behind my ear, and then went on the labyrinth and it taught me how it may seem like we’re going in circles, but ultimately it’ll lead us exactly where we need to be. Beautiful!

Took a fun walk up an easy trail. It's about a 2 mile loop. There was very slight elevation to an overlook area that had a pleasant view of downtown Bozeman and the surrounding mountains.
