Trip Report

It was so hot when we started our walk at 7:45 pm. Shady Trail 4 was a welcome relief from the hot sun. All of us made it to the top in time to see the sun rays shining through the Mt. Pisgah Sighting Pedestal at 8:58 pm The earlier moonrise at 4:21 pm meant that the moon was on view on the way down.
