I bushwhacked up West, finding steep going and tough footing. The woods were thick in places near the top. Both bumps are recognized, but the further south one is higher. The summit of West has some very nice views. I worked towards the col in scappy woods. at Muskrat Pond, I hit a trail that helped me make headway through the col. I bushwhacked up to the recognized highpoint of Walker in mainly open woods. To returned, I slabbed down to about 1400 feet and followed that contour a fairly long way back to the road. |
