 | Comments: |
Great loop up some favorite trails in the range. Trails were dry with no real mud to speak of. Tons of blueberries to pick right now. I ate my way up the mountain. Nice views from the tower although a bit hazy with the high humidity. Using the Woods Road and Herd Path shortens this loop quite a lot. |
