Hawkbill Hike

Well, the third time's the charm. We finally made it the short stretch across the ridge from the downcomer on Snowball Mountain to Hawkbill Rock. The hike took a total of 4 hours including a nice 30 minute respite for lunch on the hawk itself. After lunch, we explored along the trail toward's Little Snowball Mountain. The total trip was probably 4.5 miles, with the trip between Potatoe Field Gap and Hawkbill being about 4 miles of it. The views were awesome and weather - incredible.

We also saw interesting flora and the blueberries should be ripe in just a couple of weeks.
