| Comments: |
Beautiful day, perfect weather with bright blue sky, great visibility at the top, good temperature, with many people hiking and bicycling, with no car traffic yet at the top. Some snow remains on the ski runs, but none on the rest of the mountain. All the trails were in great shape, though Jack Frost and High Meadow were fainter than the main trails (though still easy to follow). Sadly, there was not enough wind to spin the wind turbines today. |
