Thank you ThinMan for Th 7/2’s post. This indeed is an unheralded gem. Easy footpath With minimal rocks and roots makes the ascent manageable even in mid-80° heat and humidity. I read about the lower logging road brushy-ness but I didn’t find it bad at all. Easy to jump off the trail and social distance here. Only saw five other parties all day. Fabulous views north, east and west. #44 of the new 52 WAV list. |
