Description:

Look for us by my car a row or two down from the fee box. Depending on weather, I plan to take back trails, #4 and #2 to the summit, avoiding the main trail #1. Mileage and elevation could vary but around 6 miles at a steady moderate pace. Estimated time is 3 hours so bring snacks.

Trip Report

It was rewarding to hike above the fog and enjoy the sun and the mountain views. Nicole on her first Pisgah hike was surprsed when she was stung by yellow jacket—so were all of us. Susie and Jamie completed their third trip and will be mailing in their membership application in to be able to attend climb school.
