Comments
Comments: Did this one on a whim- I tried to avoid heavily crowded places and suddenly remembered the Moats, and that I was near the southern trailhead. So off I went! Only one car in the lot when I got there.

This part of the Moat Mountain Trail is incredibly nice, and the views from both summits are very impressive. Collectively, I spent about an hour eating lunch and taking in the view. Hope to be back again!
