Climbed Hurricane Mtn on Friday for 360 degree views ... 2000' elevation gain. 20190906_111756_HDR.jpg
The tower ... It's been restored but no window glass

Some rock scrambling as I near the top
Hike is a steady climb, mostly in the woods until near the last quarter mile & then it's open rock to the tower. The views are quite the reward.
