Great Hike!

Started at Hidden Villa, as the Rhys Ridge parking lot was full. It did not add a lot of additional distance. Still around 9.3 miles out and back.

First part is single file trail and winds up the mountain to Ewing Hill. When it merges with Black Mountain trail is becomes wider. For 2 miles it just winds slowly up the hill. Not very steep and great views. Then the last mile has some pretty steep parts. But once you get up to the top the view is spectacular.

The weather was beautiful this morning and trail was not very busy. No dogs and bikes allowed.
