Returning to Baldpate Mountain on the last day of October.
Archive of photos that were originally on our main Baldpate Mountain – Ted Stiles Preserve page. See that page for complete hike details.
We’d last hiked here in 2012 (“Baldpate Mountain – Summit, Ridge, and Honey Hollow“).
Compare the photos on this post to our first hike in 2009 (“Baldpate Mountain in August“) to see how many less farm buildings there are.
The morning started off very foggy and misty – perfect for Halloween.

Plenty of pretty foliage.
