Comments
Comments: I had never been to Hight before, though I had hiked Carter Dome. Having heard about how beautiful it is and since I'm considering completing the Trailwrights 72, I went for it. I'm really glad I did.



All in all, I really enjoyed this hike. The effort didn't seem overly much and the views from Hight were more than worth it. In the future, I think I personally would opt for Carter Dome, then Hight (as opposed to the other way around which is what I did today).
