A little bite of a climb coming from the south but others wise a real nice walk.

And the town of Damascus close by.
What a picture that conjures up in my mind's eye. Those mountains put you in touch with a real peace. Aren't the people in Damascus the best? Just the image of the area pulls at my heart. Maybe, one day I'll hike the Trail like Grandma Gatewood.
