Comments
Comments: Excellent afternoon hike of PATN. The herdpath has become very well established since my last visit approx 2 years ago. While I did have a track for this it was not needed. after approx 1200 feet there is a cairn on the right marking the beginning of the herdpath from the old FR. Last entry was 8/28 and summit register is 3/4 full. Beautiful views!
