About This Trail

It is unlikely that you have ever done a hike like the one in the picture. The hike is standard enough, following the Appalachian Trail over moderate inclines. You will climb past the decent view atop Mt. It might be a destination on a hike. You come down the other side of the mountain and see a huge meadow that seems like it shouldn't be there. The low grass stretches on and on, leading to a panoramic view of the hills beyond. A perfect place to enjoy a picnic.
