The Alcoa Ridge Runners took this hike as a round trip of four miles starting and ending at Newfound Gap Road on the tenth day of November in 2013. The tour would be for checking the progress of trail renovation and doing some bouldering at the summit. Images of the trail renovation, woods and summit would be taken. On the team were two of the three leaders, Blue and Yellow. The following set of images were taken by Ranger Travis.
