| Comments: |
The summit was socked in with fog and low clouds. Reminded me of Scotland, surprisingly beautiful. Took extreme caution of wet rocks and leaves throughout the entire hike. Drizzled/misted until about noon. More people at the summit than I had expected because of the weather but obviously I'm not the only one who hikes in all kinds of weather conditions.
