Decided to attempt another Home Court 100. Too hot of a day for this trip and too much sun exposure late afternoon. Turned out to be a more difficult uphill hike and scramble that I was expecting - the heat did not help. However the views were spectacular today and we had a mountain goat pass within two feet of us when we took a break at the side of the "trail", and he decided to go down our path.
