Mount Margaret
“This is what I call solvency,”my friend exclaimed as he finished a 360-degree pirouette on the top of Mount Margaret. This was the lead-in to a lunch-break discussion of how we can never go broke as long as the striking views, the chipmunks skittering across the rocks, an eagle windsurfing a thermal updraft, and restorative solitude remain available to us at such places. Forget that the crest of Mount Margaret is lower than the trailhead and that there is little perceptible elevation change between the two.When you reach the top, it feels like the top. Oh yes, ascending to the very, very top is not at all recommended: It consists of a dome about 30 feet high and,without climbing gear, could not be scaled without significant exposure.
