Back out on the Skyline Trail for section 2 of our SKT section hike! It was a beautiful day - warm weather, blue skies with a few clouds mixed in and few people, why I love my Mondays off with Parker :-)
Today's section was from the Great Blue Hill Observatory (where we finished section 1) to Hillside St via the South Skyline Trail, and back via the North Skyline Trail. NOTE: This is the only section that has 2 Skyline trails.

"I wanna walk, I wanna walk, I wanna walk" I gave in eventually. |

At the turnaround point. Notice the sign for N Skyline and S Skyline |
|
Per Parker's request, we had a picnic before heading back. I felt like a giddy thru-hiker when I discovered the soda machine! |

"We go this way, Daddy" |

Up and down, up and down, this trail is a good workout with 35 lbs on your back! |
