We'll hike up to Mt. Paugus, one of the 52-With-A-View peaks. On the way down, we'll summit a second mountain, Mt. Mexico, and enjoy Big Rock Cave! The hike should be possible even if wet, but if it's really bad, we might consider hiking Saturday instead of Sunday.
Route: 8.2 miles and 2600 ft. elevation gain. We'll hike at a comfortable pace. AllTrails link
