Comments
Comments: Why do an out and back on the same trail when you can do a loop?! The ladder and ledge on the Hi-Cannon Trail is a fun nugget on the ascent. The bare rock on Kinsman Ridge Trail can be slick on the descent, but a little butt sliding fixes that problem. It was a beautiful blue sky day for #48/48.
