Amazing trail and hike, MD crowds were gone, gorgeous weather. Wildfire smoke was not an issue while hiking. This was #15 for me. Be sure to tag the true summit, which is the next high point (going north) after passing junction with Kate Sleeper Trail. The ledges are no joke and require careful navigating. Can't imagine doing those while wet or icy. Trail is in overall great shape, very dry, clear, well signed, blue blazes for most of the way. Views are incredible! |
