(Filed under Trip Reports rather than Trail Conditions b/c it was all bushwhack; no trail involved except some overgrown logging roads at the start) There were three of us; Tony, the nominal hike leader; Christine, whose access to the Minerva Club saved us 2.4 mi. of walking; and one tag-along who enjoyed the woods while those two did all the route finding. Logging was going on when we got to the anticipated start. We naturally complied with the logger's request to stay out of where they were working, requiring only a slight adjustment from the course Christine had plotted. I'll borrow from her post-hike summary to tell the rest of it: Left vehicle at 9:10, arrived FB.1 at 10:51 after 2.1 mi. of climbing. Left FB.1 at 11:06, down at col 0.56 mi. away at 11:33. Lunch break. Left col at 11:54. 1.72 mi. walk up ridge to summit FB.2 at 13:25. Elbowed deer flies aside for photo-op. Christine's fourth visit...why? There is no explanation that could possibly be understand by anyone who would ask the question. Abandoned magnificent setting at 13:46 and raced back to col at 14:47 after 1.82 mi. taking slight detour off E. side of ridge with some good views, bypassing the bumps and well worth the extra 0.1 mi. At col, deer flies hovered while we renewed heavy applications of Old Time Woodsman's Fly Dope and DEET before attacking with renewed ferocity. Left col at 14:52 for 2.01 mi. Hobblebush dance to the car, reached at 16:09. A great day in the woods, even though a bit crowded at times.
