Kentucky Day 5

We were somewhat sad for two reasons: it was our last day & it was just starting to warm up. Regardless, a gorgeous last day for a hike.
We started off making the short trip to Pinnacle Outlook, then walked to a couple forts. After that, took the road trail to the Saddle Gap where we split off to the Tri Peak State Trail for our last hurrah. It took us a couple minutes to find the right trail once we reached the saddle gap but we were on our way in no time. When I was in 8th grade, my family & I hiked the same trail, but I didn't remember anything of the actual hike. Not even halfway through, I knew why- it was so difficult! Short but very steep ascent to the peak. Snapped a few pictures, took off a few layers, & enjoyed the sun all the way down. After changing into roadtripping clothes, it was back to Michigan.
