Miller Peak

In area: Teanaway

I parked at the end of Stafford Road and headed up the Miller Creek trail (#1379). It was a pleasant trail with great autumn colors on the lower part. There were a small number of larches near the top. I didn't see anyone the whole day but, judging by the tracks on the trail, it is well-used by horses and motorcycles. My curiosity was piqued by the semi-permanent camp set up on the SW ridge, complete with a pile of fire wood.
