Run to the top of Whitetop Mtn. Trail up, shwack down. Came across some true sugar maples on the way up. No syrup left unattended though.
Run down was difficult. Got slightly off track due to difficulty following the ridgeline at the top. Trees were DENSE. Very fairy tale like though with moss everywhere.

Mountain Biking 1:49:06 [2] 11.89 mi (6.5 mph) +2286ft

Ride at Beartree. Did a lollipop loop recommended on MTBProjects. Turns out I did it the wrong way and had a pretty unrideable climb at the end of the loop (1mile, 800ft, 15%, with some ruts, downed trees and leaf covered soft trail). Had to hike a bike a few other sections. Probably would have hiked less in the other direction though.
The pups stayed in the car for this. Don't think Skip would have made it and he would have been alone without Z.
Finished in the dark but without my light.
