Walking 5:00:00 [2]
Buford Mtn loop with small Let's Hike group - fun bunch. Early start (5:30 at carpool; on trail by 7:15) really helped. By going CC, did climbing early and had long lunch stop late on Bald Knob - great glade and great view of Belleville (?) Valley. Way down was long on rocky road and hot. Good lunch and refresher at General Store in Caledonia (free salted peanuts!). No chiggers, only 5 ticks, PI was avoidable (plus Tecnu), Trail was easy to follow. Worth doing but not spectacular - probably would do again in late Fall. Hot but dry.
