Climbing Up Old Woman


We hiked up the Old Woman Mountain...I guess they call it that because it looks like an old woman laying in her back. It was ONE HELL of a hike!!! NO JOKE!! It was worth it when we got to the top and I'm sure we'll be doing it again soon!

At the top of the hike is the old foundation of an Army Fort that was prepared for an invasion from Russia in World War II, which of course, didn't happen. So, the foundation and an old flag pole are the only things left up there.

Oh, and bears...ya, those are up there too. We didn't see any, but the key is to make your presence known - so you talk to the "bears" as you are hiking up just so they can hear your voice - the last thing you want to do is surprise them!!
