 | Comments: |
A pretty strenuous hike, but it is worth it. Amazing 360 view from the top of the fire lookout tower. I was there when thunderstorms engulfed the mountain and was safe, dry and sheltered thanks to that. Very lightly trafficked (hiked during Monday and Tuesday). On the later stage of the ascent, when it becomes steeper and rockier, you'll find some blueberry growing there. |
