 | Comments: |
Since we were working our way southward, we hit Magalloway. The private camp at the bottom of the trail, and the cabin at the top had been vandalized in the last couple of days (broken windows), and a state forest worker was up there doing some repairs. Coot was steep going up, but worth the effort. The overlook was absolutely fantastic, with views rivaling those from the tower. Bobcat down was enjoyable. What a great peak, offering up views of the wild north country. |
