Just four days after hiking the 16.3 mile loop around Doughton Park, we did it again. This time it was a bit warmer, with less snow and limited ice. The sky was not quite as clear, but still a spectacular hike. This hike has 3 distinct parts, up, along the blue ridge and then down. The 3 trails combined are Flat Rock Ridge, Bluff Mountain and Cedar Ridge. Together, they, roughly, form the boundary of the park.
Lunch was once again at the shelter along Bluff Mountain Trail. It is very near the high point of the entire hike at 3796 feet. However, the best view is just to the west of the shelter at an open rock outcropping.
