Thank you to FranM and company for breaking out the Kilkenny Ridge trail over to South Weeks. The trail was fairly easy to follow although the GPS came in handy when drifting caused us to lose sight of the path. Someone bare booted behind us which broke up the trail a bit, but still in good shape when we left it. The views were fantastic, this is a very underrated hike. |
