Peter owes a writeup! -- Pictures by Alan and Craig A

My original intent was to hike the Pig Fence, but an injured arm made me switch to Goat Rock instead. I'm glad I did because it was a beautiful day for a hike and I had a PB of 2:40 to The Rock, even managing to keep up Christina most of the way! The only downside was that I had to downgrade the hike from a Level 4 to a high 3 because it was too easy :)


The first stop is always Flag Hill
