THE HIKE:
 |
| Brodie spending the day at the grandkids' house since I would be away all day long. |
 |
| Starting the hike on Joppenbergh Mountain. |
 |
| I would be coming back from the Overlook Trail; keeping to the right hiking a perimeter loop. |
 |
| I noticed this flowering tree that I don't think I have ever seen before. There was only one such tree. |
 |
| It's a Northern Catalpa tree. |
 |
| Keeping right on the red Buteo Trail. |
 |
| Right on the purple trail that goes steeply downhill. |
 |
| Purple turns left ... |
 |
| ... keeping straight on yellow. |
 |
| This goes steeply uphill. |
 |
| Then steeply downhill. |
 |
| This rock outcrop is the overlook but there is a short trail just before it that provides a much better view. |
 |
| Rosendale Trestle over Roundout Creek where I would be headed next after this hike. |
 |
| A more obstructed view from the rock outcrop. |
 |
| Continuing on the yellow trail. |
 |
| Back at the gravel trail ... |
 |
| ... to Willow Kiln Park. |
