We started out from Lincoln Gap ...Trail was wet from rains the nite before ...The worst part of the long trail was just before we summited Abraham ..was a bit steep & rocky....After that the ridge was a walk in the park....We stopped to look at the plane wreck after leaving Abraham. After getting to Mt Ellen we walked down the service rd to where we had spotted a car....8.7 miles 6.5hrs....Not to many views today but it did break every once in awhile |
