Comments
Comments: From home to the Trailhead took me 6 hours of driving. I started my hike at 11 am and I was soaking in the river at the Ledges before 3, ha ha. What a great hike, well worth the extra effort to do the loop. West Peak and Old Jay Eye Rock--and the ridge to the highpoint of OJI was exciting and big vistas surrounded me. Oh it was hot hot hot and humid. Trails are in excellent condition, well blazed and cared for so people stay on the lightly used OJI trail.
