Winter?

Griffin and Jimmy

Not much winter in Pisgah this year.  The trails were good for snow running for about a week.  Right now, unfortunately, they aren't very fun to run on. These pictures are from Beal's Knob.  We hiked up on a random day with the dogs.  Obvioulsy, there's a nice view of Mt Monadnock.

Trail runners are encouraged to register, and there will also be a half-hike version available that will be roughly 4 miles in length.

Thank you for your help!!

SUMMER in Pisgah State Park

Right now we avoid most of the park for running because the deer flies are pretty brutal, but Kilburn Loop is great running on a cool summer morning....and a swim too!

Spring in Pisgah State Park

Griffin and I ran for a couple hours through Pisgah State Park on Mother's Day.  It was a beautiful morning! 



Bridge at Fullam Pond



Fullam Pond



"Moose-Lookout" off of South Woods Trail.  Greg calls it that because it seems like there should be a moose standing out there.  (Also where he proposed to me...:) )




Griffin standing on old foundation on Horseshoe Road; I was drinking some gatorade and deciding if we really wanted to venture out do to the mini-vistas loop....



We did continue on... this is Mount Monadnock from Reservoir Road.

Storm clouds seen from the Hubbard Hill Vista...good thing we were close to home
