I hiked a 3.1 mile round-trip hike up Steamboat Rock from Wilson Canyon. This was my second trip up Steamboat Rock. It's a fun scramble. There was also a constant threat of thunderstorms so I needed a short hike. To get to Steamboat Rock I followed the Wilson Canyon Trail for a half mile, and then turned left on the Jim Thompson Trail. Then I followed that trail for a quarter mile to where a social trail veers off to the right. From there it is almost a mile up to the top of Steamboat Rock. It took me 1 hour and 46 minutes one-way. But I stop and take a lot of photos. Total distance from the trailhead was 1.6 miles.
