Easy to follow to summit of Success with many great views..360 deg.. going to the plane crash was a different story. After leaving summit along the AT trail it was easy with many views still. But when it started to descend and we found the Orange survey tape off on our left of the AT it became tight with stiff brush. Scratched the heck out of my legs..no long pants..:(. Going down you come to a junction. Kept right as I saw the Tape that way.. in short order plane was visible.. packed in thick brush,trees.. be careful as the jagged Aluminum pieces are every where.. and you have to step over wreckage. If you slip and slice open a vein your done.. |
