Brought Sam and Dustin here to check out Hamilton Hollow Falls from up-close as I'd only viewed this waterfall from across Cedar Run earlier in the year. The moss-covered rocks and ledges were awesome to say the least. Great cascade, though the water was lower in the Summer, but made for safe creek hiking in Cedar Run.
Brought Sam and Dustin here to show them Twin Falls. Quick hike up and back; however, during the Summer you can't see the additional cascades down in the creek below.
Quick hike to the beautiful rock grotto of Mine Hole Run Falls - much nicer in the Summer than the Spring despite the lower water. Dustin and Sam showed me the trail that runs up the rocks and meets the road as well, so there are 2 ways to reach this spot.
Back again with Tony and Jax. Stony Peak is officially a USGS Summit so the mountain now has its own commemorative summit marker along with my homemade sign and some Tibetan wind horse prayer flags to bring luck to visitors. The trail registry had one entry from the day earlier (5/9/2023) along with a couple of entries from friends from this year. Glad folks are enjoying Stony Peak. Now hikers can enjoy a summit marker and sign when they hike up too!
Bit of a wet morning on the summit of Cedar Mountain with some light rain and even snow squalls. Posted the "Cedar Mountain Elev. 2543" sign (with Grand View behind) and then located the old summit marker which can be found enclosed in fencing directly under the security camera at the radio tower. Note that the sign is not located on the summit for obvious reasons.
