Trip Report/Photos
Featured Photo

We had nice weather for this hike. Three of us participated in the hike. Most of the ascent and descnet was done under a tree canopy with limited views. The walk along the ridgeline traversed the unofficial eastern continental divide and was rocky with many rock outcrops and some views.

 

While walking along the shaded portion of the ridge line we came across many piles of stones, where farmers had stacked them  aside in order to farm the land.
