I couldn't believe that this hike was only a half a mile
further than Bald Mountain.
I would say that it's about 5 times harder. There was no real
trail, you just have to find your way up the spur ridge. Once
you're on the spur ridge a path becomes visible near the top.
I would have to say that this is the hardest, and most dangerous,
5 miles I've ever walked. If you don't have great route finding
skills, stay clear of this peak. Also reading the rocks is
a crucial part of this hike, step on the wrong ones and you're
doomed. On the top of the peak, there was an incredible assortment
of multi-colored flys. As soon as I tried to take pictures
of them, they left us alone.
