My last photos of my trek to the top of Mount Toby include my favorite flora, birch trees (above) and wood ferns (below), that add so much visual interest to these northern woods. Coming up: photos of Sawmill River.

Rewards

Took the Tower Road coming down from Mount Toby's summit, which had its own rewards. The first was finding this Indian Pipe (above) growing along the side of the road. Another was this Flowering Raspberry (below).

Mount Toby Summit

 

Well, it was a long, hot hike to the top of Mount Toby and not a lot to see once you got there, unless, of course, you climbed the fire tower, which, as you can see, several of my fellow hikers did. For me, though, it was enough to search for and find one of the summit's survey markers before making my trek back down the mountain.
