 | Comments: |
Very fun 6 miles - we overshot the left turn to summit trail and did a couple extra miles in the beautiful woods passing a beautiful glade with a large cellar hole. Firetower taller than I remember! We still climbed Firetower but it was a bit unnerving. Around 1k' elev. Hot and humid morning! |
