 | Comments: |
Couple really nice viewpoints, Bald and Speckled. Close up views of Spruce Mtn Windfarm. Fine hike if in the area. No significant snow yet. Passed a dozen or so other hikers out enjoying a pretty fall day, so trail gets some use. First time in the area so it was a fun adventure just finding the trailhead! |
