This 9.6-mile trail section of our NOBO LASH spans between Swatara Gap and Geary Wolfe Rd. (PA 645). The hike started earlier today, with mostly cloudy skies, temps again in the upper 30’s, and a bit of a breeze. Forecast for the day was to be cloudy all day. Like the day before, light sleet was encountered several times during the hike. The sun came out a few times, but didn’t last long each time.
A total of 7 people were encountered during the hike today; some seemed to be day hikers, where others seemed to be either section or thru hikers.
Only one view was found in this section of trail.
In three different areas of this trail, Schuylkill Notes were seen. Following Leave No Trace principals, the notes were picked up and removed from the trail.
