Case Mountain Extensive Recreation Management Area — Attraction in Exeter

I went last week with friends, and we got there around 10am on a Saturday and the parking area was already packed. As you’re approaching it, you need to drive slow because the road is so narrow to the point that one car cannot leave while another one is trying to come in. Luckily when I got there, there wasn’t any cars trying to leave. I was also lucky enough to get the last available spot to park.

We had to walk over slippery rocks and almost fell a few times. The hike wasn’t too hard, but what made it feel that way was that it was super hot outside.

I don't get what the big deal is with this place. Going off the reviews from some of the influencers I follow, I thought this would be a really great hiking area. Typical that influencers make places seem better than they are! It was very cold. We saw a bunch of wild horses that escaped their pen which was terrifying!!
