Wild blackberries - (pucker) they were sour! We also came across a yellow plum tree, whereas the plums were quite tasty.
Carol decided it was too hot for sweats. Good thing we had a handy-dandy Swiss Army Knife.
Saw several of these signs along the trail... a little disconcerting.
A bench! Who wants to be a sitting duck today? We weren't feeling it.
This is it - The Peak.
