|
 | Bugs: |
Mosquitoes were freaking amazing (horrible). With bug spray, we didn't have to be concerned about them biting, but we had to walk through swarm after swarm on pretty much the entire route, except for sections of ledge up top. Weird to have them constantly bumping into one's arms/legs. But hey, on the plus side: no black flies today. |

 | Comments: |
Other than the mosquitoes, a nice leg-stretcher.
Nice temperatures, scenery, and views from the ledges. |
