A Perfect Little Mistake

So off we headed for Gobbler's Knob fire lookout on Saturday after the big sale at Whitaker's in Ashford. We got a late start because of the sale and headed up the trail.

The road to the trailhead is very bad - about 8 miles of very bad. We headed up the trail and it was up. This trail really had no flat with the exception of a little chunk by a little lake about 3/4 mile into the hike.

 At about 1.25 we came to a sign that pointed to the summit of something to the left.

 

 

We obeyed and went left to whatever summit it was. In less than half a mile we were at the summit of Mt. Beljika - not where we were heading, but a nice place for some lunch and photography.

 

That is Gobbler's Knob. At least we got a picture of it.





After our break we headed back down the trail and had some grub and beer at the Mountain Festival at Whitcker's. One day we will actually do the Gobbler's Knob hike.

 

 

Be well and more soon....
