Comments
Comments: Thought this was going to be an easier day then it turned out to be. I hiked up east pond to the high point and made a b-line to east scar from there. I was hoping to find a herd trail but that was a no go and was just the woods. Once on the ridge there was still no visible trail which showed me this area is barely touched. Onto the middle and west the area was full of smaller pines only inches from each other and I have the scratches on up and down my arms to prove it. Once on top of east it was easier to follow to the top by following game trails. The way I took down was down to a stream I saw on a map and when I reached it I just walked it town towards the little east trail and booked it back to my car because that was the toughest bushwacking I have done so far.
