Trip Report

After 1 and 1/2 hour of hiking, we reached the intersection with Trail 2 and the rain began. Water flowed downhill while we steadfastly hike up the hill. The rain stopped 45 minutes later when we reached the top. It was fun to have Russ Davies with us, his first time on the Pisgah trails. Surprise! Meghan Mahoney who was on a recent guest hike greeted us on top. After hearing how Russ made sauerkraut, some stopped at Me and Moore to purchase cabbage. The rest hurried home for something hot.
