Without super busy summer looking for houses, we decided to take the day off and go hiking.

The day was clear but not crisp and we were looking for some fall colors that had eluded us. The hike was nice with the splendid views you get from the top. We visited both view points and were planning on spending some time under the sun while we ate some lunch but found that to be a bit tricky. The wind was blowing pretty hard which made it a bit cold up there so we waited a bit until we were protected by the ridge but then we never stopped. We continued down via the Sturgeon Rock trail. We thought about taking the detour but another group was scrambling up there and we had done it before, besides, without lunch we were getting hungry very quickly.
