Late July is a good time to go North. Recently, my visiting friend, Carl, and I went up to the Second College Grant north of Errol. We did the moderate yet exciting hike up the Diamond Peaks (2,040 feet).

After the hike, we separated. He did some mountain biking on the well-maintained dirt roads in the Grant, and I bushwhacked down the 1-mile Diamond Gorge, located on the Dead Diamond River. Later, we met up at our car, located outside the gate.
