| Comments: |
I hadn't been out to the South Piper ledges in a while so today seemed like a great day for it. Trails were dry with minor mud here and there. Ledges were dry as well. Spectacular views from the ledges today seeing a little bit of fall color working its way in. Trees are generally still green. Fine day to be out |
