Turtle Hike Bald Knob Tuesday Sept 24

Fourteen Turtles ventured up to Bald Knob on Tuesday, September 24.  We enjoyed some nice views from the lookout part way up the Cut-Off Trail.  Bill stepped in as our narrator and educator explaining the process of columnar jointing as we viewed several hexagonal columns strewn across the ground.  We proceeded upwards to the rocky Bald Knob out-cropping for lunch and photos.  The lone gentleman hiker (whose solitude we must have disturbed) kindly offered to be our photographer.  After lunch, six Turtles added a second peak (Turtleback Mountain), before descending.  Once again, the Ossipees didn’t disappoint.  The Turtles will be back!
