Sort of an after work hike. Nice easy and short trails, mostly following woods roads. AW was the only footpath here. WMT just skirts the summit, so I did the very short, easy bushwhack to the high point, of which there are two contending bumps. The summit is not recognized. Just beyond the summit the trail drops slightly to the excellent view ledges and cabin. This is a really great vista! WMT seems to be the main route here, the other trails appear to be lesser used. A great small peak with a nice payoff! |
