2019-04-20: Miller Rock - Phillip's in town

[Jim]

Matt and his son and Phillip and I gathered to explore Miller Rock. Our first stop was Miller Rock itself. I scrambled atop for the photo. Only a short stop and we were on the way to the creek - with the thought - would the other side, heading up be free of snow? Snow was generally of no issue but in a couple of spots, with the right side tires in snow but the left sides on dry ground found the rights spinning. A simple spot where a locker made life easy.

We stopped at the main old cabins and then trekked to explore the other trails. On the way out, heading to the creek, I made a turn to one of the lesser traveled trails. It had a fall-down house but the chimney was still standing. A few minutes to explore and snap some pix we headed out - it was late in the day and we didn't explore the trails to the north.

Phillip, for a first visit with Matt spotting, made quick work getting up the obstacle.

The Miller Rock questions Michael had have been moved to their own thread in Trail Resources > Miller Rock - Parking, tight-spots, large group concerns
