Comments
Comments: A FINE day in the forest for hike #2 on the day. Departed the log landing mentioned prior in a general SW direction, finding skidder lines for more than half of the ascent. Just check the aerial, if you're doing these, you'll figure it out :) There are loose logging lines about every 40' past the more recent clearings. Woods are very good and generally very open. No issues at all. Slope angle shading towards the top suggest a steep area but I think because these quads are in 20' minor/100' majors contour bands it's a little deceiving. This area - go figure" has a skid line that wraps gradually around it (albiet very faint and old). There was a great sundog at T26. Approximately one hour car to car.
