The total elevation difference for Bowman Mountain Trail is 1,277 feet which is about average. The backcountry trail stays roughly within the same elevation zone the whole time which means the conditions are about the same from start to finish. The time needed for this backcountry trek is roughly 6.5 hours, but you never know stuff could go wrong and you could get stuck so be prepared for that. Being 7.2 miles long it's a mid length backcountry trek. Bowman Mountain Trail is quite long, so do pack enough food to last the whole trip. This is a two-ended great outdoors hiking trail with two trailheads, so if you can get a ride from someone, you can backcountry walk it just one way. At parts of the year this vicinity sees very little rain, so don’t forget to check for any current fire restrictions before you go.
