Trip Report

8 participants enjoyed the cool mid-day hike. It was fun to return from the summit via trail #2 which is infrequently used. And, the group voted to add an additional 1 mile to the hike, by staying on #2 all the way to #4, rather than cut through. Near the end of the hike we saw a coyote from a distance near base of Swing Hill, it didn't seem concerned about approaching hikers!
