This was a solo hike, up the Azalea Glen Trail to the Lookout Fore Road to the summit, then back down via the Lookout Fire Road.
The Azalea Glen Trail is beautiful single track. It was cold, with a driving “sprinkle” that eventually soaked me even through my Goretex shell. No views at the summit (which was open on Sunday) due to the clouds, but there was something wonderful about hiking through the mist on an autumn day.
