Just  got back from doing 183 to 501. First "real" hike since wrecking
my  quad  tendon  on  3/28. I forgot what an incessantly, relentlessly
rocky section this is. Needless to say, I was most careful, and didn't
look up much. 9 1/2 miles and I felt great. No stumbles.

Beautiful day. The creek was absolutely  roaring  at  Hertlein.  Saw a
few  big  old  hawks gliding around Roundhead. Saw a guy using cut-off
hockey sticks for poles.  Interesting.

If you do Black Forest, post a report.
