After Chase Hill, it was on to Kelly Mountain. This hike is a little longer, but still less than 2 miles round-trip. The road in was in excellent condition, and was easily passable by any vehicle. The trail was messy with quite a bit of mud and ice, but nothing really too bad. The view from the newer observation deck on the tower has got to be one of the best views from a sub 2,000 foot peak in the state. The sun and minimal wind made it feel almost pleasant up there! |
