Another GREAT hike with Forestgnome.... took a LOT of time to summit due to distracting flowers and butterflies :). We finally gained the peak in just over 6 hours!!!! YAY! BUT, got some good sunburns - OUCH! Anyway, AWESOME views from these lesser-travelled trails. Took 1.5 hours to descend due to the beckoning call of the chilled adult beverages awaiting.... :) |
