Echols Dorm: Brick Wall By Side Door
Echols Dorm: Brick Wall By Side Door
Rise and shine folks,
Prime your alarms for the old standby — that ODC bread and butter — the alpine alimentation: we’re hiking HUMPDAY HUMPBACK. For you newcomers in the club, know that the hallowed humpback summit is to hiking like a Bodo’s bagel is to breakfast: a true Cville-style classic.
The simple plan:
1. We’ll leave from Echols dorm in the 5:15 AM gloom
2. Hike the (steep) 1-mile trail at 5:50 AM
3. We should summit before sunrise (6:55 AM), then proceed to ~marinate our minds in morning-magic ~ steep our souls in summit-sunrise-scenery ~ before returning to the trailhead at 8:15 AM
4. Return to grounds around 8:45-ish
PLEASE BRING:
* 1 to 2L of water
* Appropriate clothing (might be chilly up there, I’d recommend a jacket)
* A flashlight or headlamp (cellphone lights don’t count)!!
