 | Comments: |
I realized that when redlining Hemlock Trail before, I never did this 0.4mi OAB described as a spur and thus needed for redlining. Since I was just down the road for Sunday mass, I figured this would be a good time to get it. I had to walk along some other trail (Jesup Path) to reach this trail first. The trail alternated between bare trail and slick ice that you had to be careful around. Many would want rock beaters for this. I walked to the roads jct with Hemlock Trail and back. Gaia had me at 0.9mi, 50ft of gain, 19min. |
