So today, I took the high road and stayed along the ridge. It was more arduous than I remembered; there's a bit of scramble which feels a little exposed, especially when the wind gusts, and there was a lot of mud and damp leaves. On the final leg, I managed to stray from the official path and had a punishingly steep descent. Felt it in my knees after a while - not good.
But it was a good day overall. Plenty of fungi and flowers. Not much wildlife - just a daddy long-legs, a few slugs, and a worm or two.
Arrived Cold Spring at 10:30, made it to the 4:04 train at Beacon.
