After reading many reports on Fort, and since I now live in the area, I decided to check it out. Not terribly interesting, but new terrain nonetheless. It probably does have the most unique summit marking I've ever seen though, a pair of boxer shorts flying from a flagpole. :) Good directional views walking around the summit area, which is dominated by one of the tallest communication towers I've ever seen on a mountain. |
