A very steady steep climb for 4 hours. We climb from 1500' to 5000' to reach Cheoh Bald around 1pm.On the ascent we pass a plaque commemorating a firefighter who was killed in the area trying to stop a forest fire.

Lazy afternoon on the summit of Cheoah Bald |

Half an hour rest basking in the sun |
Cheoh Bald is a brilliant viewpoint. The weather is sunny and I lie and bask in the sun for half an hour and let the warmth seep into my bones, before we head don to the gap to camp.
We make camp and have a fire - something of a rarity, and the first time we have actually lit one. We are joined by 'Low Key' and a father and son who do not interact but put up their tent and go to bed.
