Comments
Comments: Took the nice short hike up to Mt. Potash for sunset tonight, where I had the place to myself for an hour, enjoying dinner and beers. Trails in excellent shape and very dry, including the many slabs in the upper portion, there may have been one little patch of mud. Once the sun dipped below the ridges, I took off, making it back to the car without pulling out the headlamp. Nice to get out late in the day!
