AT point to point hike from the Route 56 crossing at the Tye River - south - up the Priest - on to Crab Tree Meadows - on to Spy Rock - then down the fire road to the Montebello Fish Hatchery. Distance is aout 12-13 miles, and rated strenuous due to the elevation gain of over 3,000 feet going up the Priest.
Meet at the Rockville - Mankin car pool lot by 7 am.
Tough hike but great rewards! Should have some good leaf colors and we'll top off the day with dinner at the Devil's Backbone brewery (the only way top wrap this one up!).
