 | Comments: |
Took the Bunnell trail to Kilkenny Ridge trail over N Terrace to Middle and the main peak. Bunnell was broken out to the KRT junction. KRT was poorly marked and difficult to follow. I'd follow trail 300 feet then bushwhack anywhere from 20 to 100 feet to find the established trail. No Terrace is marked with a sign on the KRT. The Terrace summit is a 0.1 mile spur trail. Once on the Terrace summit I chose to retrace my steps out instead of breaking out the loop. |
