Didn't go to either of these! I made it to Craggy Pinnacle. Accidentally traveled the Craggy Garden trail thinking it connected.....um, no. Also found out that it takes me 2 hours to do under a 2 mile hike in the mountains. Comparatively, it takes me 2 hours to do 4+ hour hike in Umstead park in Raleigh.

I think being there during the week will make it a bit less crowded, but probably not. I think I just have to get up uber early to get to the trails before the crowds.
