Comments
Comments: Parking lot mostly full at 1130am. Sunny, upper 70’s day. Very dry conditions all the way up. Starts out easy to moderate after the houses, and gets steeper after the water crossing. Lots of stone staircases on the steeper parts. The last mile has a few steep scrambles to the wooded top. Took the Walden and East Loop trails off the peak back to Diceys Mill Trail. That route provided a couple of good views to the west toward Cochura and south toward the Bowl. 2949 ft vertical, 5:19 total time moving, 9.6 miles round trip
