We grouped together for the last hike in the area led by one beloved hike leader Pietro before he moved south. The 12-miles 2150 feet elevation gain hike was on the Appalachian Trail to summit High Knob and came back to the Jim & Molly Denton Shelter for lunch.
After the hike, we rejoined at the Barrel Oaks Winery for Pietro’s farewell party. I cannot count how many time I hiked with him during the past few years, but I am sure he will enjoy his retirement in the warmer south with his lovely wife Denise, and we will visit them to hike in the area.
I ran 8 miles on Sunday to complete my 20 hike/run miles weekend goal, since it was too dark to see black ice on the road Saturday late afternoon.
