What a fantastic weekend for a backpacking trip to Siler Bald!  We had a fun group on the trip!  Siler, never disappointing, offered up a pleasant majestic 360 degree view of the surrounding area and pleasant sunset and sunrise.   On the top of Siler, the air was cold but once we set up camp near the base of bald, we sat around a cozy camp fire and had some fun chat.  Later during the evening, a few of us decided to take a 30 minute night hike, but we ended up hiking to Wayah Crest and back - 3.2 miles in the dark!  Happy to report no ghost sightings!
