Matthew and I flew down to DC for the weekend and met up with Amanda and her mom to climb the highest mountain in West Virginia. This makes 30/50 state highpoints now for me and 28 for Matthew.

The trail to Spruce Knob was kind of lame so we stopped at Seneca Rocks on the drive back and hiked to the top. Matthew and I ventured out on the knife-edge ridge as far as we dared, while Amanda, Mrs. Morris, and Cookie played it safe at the observation deck. We then headed down for the 4-hour+ drive back to DC.
