Comments
Comments: Late afternoon outing to hike the Link to Castle Trail. The Link is quite interesting between the moss covered trail and boulders,and what looks like old slides. There is a beautiful water source approximately .6 miles up from Caps Ridge Trail which is flowing nicely. After leaving CRT crossed paths with no one until reaching the Castle Trail where i met two hikers that were equally surprised as they had seen no one for hours after ascending through the ravine. Trail best hiked on a dry day and yesterday certainly fit the bill
