Walked up McDuffie Road to first open area on the left and walked in staying to the right side, saw blue blaze on tree soon left side of woods road, after crossing brook trail takes sharp right, followed Banana Trail all the way! Enjoyed nice open ledges on all the summits. From Shaw summit followed Gorilla Trail's red/yellow blazes to Flagg. Mnt Flagg down following yellow blazes all the way to Camp Merrowvista road walk back to car. Beautiful day,saw a family on Big Ball and two couples--one leaving the other arriving. We had the trails to ourselves. Charlie thanks for coming with me today! |
