hiker at the overlook on the South Trail to Mount Pisgah in Vermont

Len braves the precipitous cliff to check out the overlook view on our way up the South Trail. That's Mount Hor rising steeply to frame the west side of Lake Willoughby. A sign posted at the trailhead says: "Warning: please keep dogs on leash, numerous dogs have died falling from cliffs near the trail." And, yes, it's straight down just a step beyond where Len is standing.
