 | Comments: |
I started by walking the road that runs towards McCoy and then using skid roads and a bushwhack to summit McCoy. I returned to the main road and followed the road that runs along the north slope of Fort to a spot just north of the peak and bushwhacked to the northern viewpoint. I took a herd path from the view to the access road and took the road to the summit. I took the herd path to the eastern view point and took the red trail, orange trail, and blue trail to reach Neville. I took trails from Neville to the road that goes over Nottingham and followed this road to a point just east of Nats and bushwhacked up Nats. I then bushwhacked down to the class 6 portion of Old Mountain Road and a short roadwalk to the car.
Some significant mud and standing water on the roads. The trails were mainly dry. This was a nice 5-peak 7.5 mile loop that I had been wanting to try. |
