Sat/Sun 7/8-9 - Hiking - Roan Highlands

Saturday
Parked at Carvers Gap and hiked to Hump Mountain, then back to Bradley's Gap to hammock camp. First time hammock camping and it worked out well. Got a little chilly at night up near 6,000 feet. Bradley's Gap is between Little Hump and Hump Mountains in the Roan Highlands.  Absolutely spectacular views.  Possibly one of the prettiest places I've hiked. 10-11 miles and an all-day affair. Watched the sunset before clouds rolled in at Hump Mountain.

Sunday
Woke up and hiked from Bradley's Gap back to Carvers Gap where the car was waiting. Drove home and stopped for huge all-you-can-eat sushi meal in Matthews.  About 8 miles.
