Browns Creek (South Fork) area

This is another interesting segment of the OT in section 8, running from FR94 (the parking area for Flatside Pinnacle) to FR152, for a total of 8 miles.

The nice features of this section include a) Flatside Pinnacle via a spur trail, b) Brown Creek Shelter, c) Brown Creek crossing, d) North Fork Pinnacle (via a spur trail) and Lake Sylvia (via a spur trail).   Looks like there's lots of spur trails in this segment!

Flatside Pinnacle is definitely worth the extra hike up to the top.  As shown in the photo, it is a rocky crag with cliffs that will induce vertigo (and nice views too).
