 | Comments: |
A quick, uneventful hike up to this former fire tower peak. The trail starts off mellow but quickly becomes steep and stays steep all the way to the wooded summit, which is marked by a large cairn with a wooden post in it. No artifacts noted at the summit. I stayed just long enough to get one photo and then hoofed it back down, because bugs. The trail was mainly dry with just a few damp areas from yesterday's storms. |
