Großer Riesenkopf

April 23, 2021

After work hike up this deceptively interesting peak. The summit, although it appears to be a small bump barely sticking out of the forest, is quite satisfying. Also, the very steep hike up past the Maiwand is enjoyable. There is a section with ropes and a very serious drop off. Not for dogs or small children! Also, it's easy to knock off some rocks in the final steep climb to the ridge crest there. I knocked one rock off and was glad there was no one else on the trail.

I went down the normal way past the Petersberg.
