The Sutherland Trail
The Sutherland Trail

Route: Fauver Link, Sutherland Trail (Plymouth Mountain), bushwhack, Sutherland Trail, Fauver Link

Trail was mostly dry. Some ripe blueberries to be found near the summit. Also did the bushwhack from the ledges just before the summit, southeast to the nice open ledges (should be some ripe blueberries here in another week or two). In addition, followed the herd path to the eastern ledges, which is very vague at this point.
