Our group was small - hike leader Barbara Martin and Rex Elliott, who was visiting the area from Maryland and saw the hike posted on the PATC Meetup group. Thank you Jeff Monroe for doing that! We left Staunton with the sky grey and foreboding. By the time we reached Braley Pond the sky was blue and the weather fine. We hiked around Braley Pond and followed the Bald Ridge Trail, which was a fire road for about a mile. We then turned off onto Bald Ridge Trail proper and climbed for about 1 1/2 miles. The views were beautiful and we had lunch. Barbara continued onto the Peak where the views were really spectacular. A beautiful day spent with good company in an area not often explored by our club.
