Mount Pugh — Sunday, Sep. 17, 2023

Beautiful hard hike. This is my second attempt. First time I had to turn back as the exposure was too much for my hiking partner. That said, the scramble is well marked with cairns and not technically difficult. Stunning views albeit the smoke and early morning fog. Saw 10 other people total and only convinced 5 of us made it to the top. The road in is truly one way. Plan your arrival and departure accordingly.
