Beautiful 1st time ascending Black Angel Trail to the Carters and Mt Hight. This is a beautiful trail through old growth hardwoods and very remote and peaceful. i can only imagine the fall foilage when it really starts.Very on BA met no others. Once on CM Trail i met several others enjoying this great stretch of weather. it was great briefly chatting with 2 NoBo hikers,a SoBo and also chatting and hiking for awhile with a flip flopper down to North Carter Trail where needed to get to Rt 16 to recover for a bit. Best of luck! Imp shelter is closed for renovations but tent platforms are available. There was no attendant but a box to pay. Spring is flowing enough to fill water bottles without issue. Plenty of room at TS only one other was occupied |
