Nice December day for a hike. Eleven of us met at the Craven's House for the start of this hike. If you look at the Altitude Graph (see pictures) you will see that the beginning of the hike is a 20% grade for about one mile. This nearly broke me but once at the tope of this first portion of the hike, the hike was relatively easy. It was morning and cloudy, but the sun was trying to break through. The temperature was in the low forties with a cold breeze blowing at us once we got on the West side. The view from Sunset Rock was incredible as always. The distance of this hike was 4.3 miles.
