Devil’s Bridge was a great one! Got in about 9 am on a Saturday. Got a parking spot in the parking lot nice and close it work perfectly for walking it! Turned out to be the perfect time, there was some people but not too many. A line was starting to take “the picture” on the actual bridge, but not bad at all! Great hike, would recommend for all levels of hikers. Thanks #inspiretraveleat
