Hike to the top

TNBigfoot68

I just wanted to share some photos of my tripe up Mt. LeConte with my Brother and Nephew. It was awesome, spent the night in a back-country shelter, experienced sunset & sunrise. Round trip was 16 + miles. The falls is Grotto Falls.

Next is our stop at Brushy Mountain, the view from Brushy is awesome!

So we should expect some Bigfoot sightings in the news.  


Looks like a good time. We didn't get to hike any so far this year.

From Brushy we climbed to the top of LeConte where the Lodge is, but we stayed in the shelter.

Sunset at Cliff Tops

Hiked in the dark to Myrtle Point for sunrise, then we hiked the Boulevard trail out to the Appellation Trail, then to Newfound Gap.

more like 'drive to the top' of Mt. Greylock while on our camping trip; 16 harrowing miles of curving roads and hairpin turns:
