Cat Mountain

Howie and I did a hike today near Lake George. We climbed Cat mountain (...didn't see any cats, maybe Howie scared them away). The trail followed logging roads and was somewhat rocky and eroded. It passed a couple of beaver ponds and some wetlands. At the summit there is a great view to the east of Lake George and the surrounding mountains. It would be a great spot to watch the sun rise. Our trek took 3 1/4 hours on this warm, sunny and somewhat hazy afternoon. Bugs were out and ... bugging.

Summit Elevation: Cat Mountain 1956 ft
Round-trip Distance: 6.5 mi
Elevation Change: 900 ft

I don't think I ever saw a beaver dam. Cool. Beautiful view!
