We did a loop today (sort of): up the Nook Trail to the Section Line to the summit of West Tiger #3 (the western-most of Tiger Mountain’s six distinct peaks) then looped around the east end of Tiger #2 to that summit and then back to #3, then down the way we came up.
It was me, Ken, Greg, David and Mike today, although, because I am slower than them I started about 20 minutes ahead of them. Turns out we both made it to #3’s summit in about 90 minutes.
As always, I love love love being in the forest:
The spot above is just below the junction between the Cable Line Trail and the Section Line Trail, about fifty yards from the Tiger #3 summit. The sign on the left says ‘Unmaintained Trail’.
We did about 5.2 miles, here is a shot of the track:
A fun hike and a great workout, since the Section Line trail is way steep.
