OK... I was going to go until the junction of the Reel Brook Trail but decided to cut my trip short at Mt. Wolf. I just could not see myself going down 1000 feet to have to turn back and climb it again. This trail is rugged and steep in places especially going up from 112. Lots of PUDS to deal with and some great stretches of trail too. All in all, I was happy with this section of the AT... If only to get it behind me. Beautiful views from Mt Wolf still too. |
