Comments
Comments: Beautiful day for this hike. Warm & breezy kept bugs away above tree line. Spectacular 360 views on all summits. Not an easy hike, lots of time exposed to the elements. Would not want to be on any of the steep slab sections in rain. Red Ridge Trail is a beautiful hike down for the 1st mile. Muddy areas near bottom very buggy here. Moat Mountain Trail is a steep & rugged climb to North Moat. Only saw 3 others all day. All on South Peak.
