Comments
Comments: The trail is pretty hard to follow with all the leaves, a GPS is pretty much essential. Hannah Swarton going up to Whales Head is kind of odd, it switchbacks a lot on relatively flat ground, almost like one of those long lines at an airport or DMV. We added an extra loop to Jerusalem Hill. Good views before the summit. By the way Lynn falls is completely dry, not even a trickle.
