 | Comments: |
Beautiful views from Mt. Hight and the ledge at Wildcat A, in particular. Lots of wildflowers in bloom on Mt. Hight summit. Decided to try the Service Road on descent instead of Wildcat E section of Wildcat Ridge; it’s certainly easier, but lots of loose gravel made for a number of slippery spots. Biked from Wildcat parking lot to 19 Mile Brook trailhead; almost all downhill! |
