Got to top of road at high noon. First hike since spraining foot in off
trail mishap 4 weeks ago. Went straight up gravel road which soon became
grassy. Found boundary swath on left marked by 2 cairns. With yellow blaze
swath easy to follow. Herd path easy to find & follow up to summit. Lost
herd path on way down so bushwacked last 200 feet or so to swath. Steep
climb but short with no views except at parking area. Foot held up well.
Thanks to Peppersass for great directions. |
