| Part of the Profile Trail on Google Earth. Recorded by Motion X GPS for the iPhone 4 |
Location: Grandfather Mountain (Profile Trail)
Date: 3/15/2011
How far we went: 2.71mi
How long it took us: 1:37:1
Elevation reached: 4401ft.
Weather: Overcast, cold, windy, wet/muddy
We arrived late and were not able to finish the trail before the sun set and the park closed so we did as much as we reasonably could. The trail was pretty nice with lots of water at the bottom and windy the higher we traveled. It was very muddy though, boots and bottom of pants were completely covered. If you're traveling on a backpacking trip and want to hit one of the campsites at the top I suggest going ahead up on this trail. Those on the other side would probably give you a little bit more trouble with a pack on.
