Nice! Did you hike the whole thing?

Haha unfortunately no. We were on our way back to home base after an afternoon river tubing on the Neuse. We wanted to see an overlook, so we went exploring in berks and flip-flops (respectively) and took a rather slow, laborious and very ankle-dangerous hike up to this point, then turned around after hanging out IDing plants for a bit.
