Excellent hike and scramble! My buddy and I arrived at the lower lot around 7:30 AM and completed the loop before noon. The trail was already busy by the time we started, but that said, there weren’t too many hold ups. Old Rag’s extensive scrambling sections and multiple false summits made this climb much more enjoyable (and challenging) than I was expecting. After reaching the true summit (which satisfyingly is a boulder with beautiful, 360-degree views) a round of photos and celebratory Yuenglings ensued, capping off this memorable climb.

Oh, and shout out to the dude who lugged a 20 or so pound bolder up the mountain!
