Again this morning, I walked from my tent site to the Bradley Fork Trail and beyond. I had intended to hike only up Dry Sluice Trail to the point I entered it yesterday but it was such a nice day, I had to continue on to the AT and Charlie's Bunion.
Above, some Fraser's Sedge in blooming.
For years I have heard there is a "tourist" bunion and the "real" bunion. I never paid attention to which was which. I saw a narrow trail head steeply up. So that is where I went. It was a steep but short climb to the top of this bunion. The views west were spectacular. I stayed here for a bit just enjoying the scene.
I could see people on distant rocks. Other bunions perhaps. Later I asked a friend and was told I had been on the real deal.
