Chumley put his loop together for our hiking pleasure. A little bit of trail, AZT, off trail bushwhack and old two track mixed in but all at 8,000 feet so that was nice! First we summited Mahan and took a break...not much of a peak but it still counts.

Next up we off trailed it over to Hutch Mountain Lookout hiking a sporty ridgeline to the summit. There was a lookout in the tower and he was nice enough to invite us up and we chatted a bit. Another break at the base of Hutch tower and then it was on to Pine Mountain. We followed a two track for a bit and then off trailed until we linked up with the AZT.

Followed the AZT southbound to another two track that managed within a 1/2 mile of the summit and then off trail from there. Took in the summit views before dropping into the trees for another snack break. Then we continued down a north slope ridgeline until we linked back up with the AZT following it northbound into Bargaman Park.

After Bargaman Park we left the AZT and off trailed back to the vehicle. Nice to be at higher elevation with the broiler on high in the valley :D
