Comments
Comments: Really great views from this hike...pretty solid incline the whole way for our first hike of the season. There was some hidden slippery spots, I took a fall, as did my hiking companion though mine was bigger. We did not have any poles, but could see how they would be helpful.

Couldn't find the usgs marker at the top of South Moat. Is there one? Hmm
