Tinker Cliffs via Andy Layne and Appalachian Trails
Tinker Cliffs has been on my wishlist for awhile now and I finally made my way to it. The trail is very steep in several placed and forward motion was stalled to a crawl. But if you persevere, the view is highly worth it, as someone who passed me coming down mentioned. Once I made it to the top, I only wish I had a little more time to stay and take in the views of McAfee Knob and North Mountain. It was gorgeous.
