Nice hike today with Carl, Mark, Mike (who has about 3 weeks until he retires!) and Ken. We started at the Exit 20 High Point Trail and, after hitting numerous trails for various section lengths, went down the Poo Poo Point/Chirico Trail where Ken’s car was waiting. He drove us back to our cars at High Point, and then we convened for coffee at a local Starbucks.
Tiger Mountain always provides a nice workout but most of the time you are in the forest which, of course, has its own charms.
Our high point was the Hiker’s Hut on Tiger 1:

Poo Poo Point was busy. We must have passed more than a hundred hikers on the way up.

The parking lot was a madhouse but we finally made it out.
8.2 miles, almost 3K elevation gain, just over 4 hours, a nice day and better by far than sitting on the couch.
