 | Comments: |
We climbed this mountain for the 1st time about 9 years ago while we were working on the Fire Tower List and 52 WAV list. The Kilns are a must see if you have never been here before. We love the history. Be prepared for a hike up that gets steep and stays steep for most of the way to the summit, but rewards you with great views. We are also explorers, so this time we went looking for the Devil Den. We believe we found it. |
