Trip Report

The Horsepasture Mt hike is always a great spring outing on account of the abundant wildflowers and great views. This year was again a worthwhile hike for our group of nine. The trail is still in very good condition with only a couple of logs to climb across on the upper section. The views from the summit were only slightly obscured by smoke from the distant wildfires.
