Comments
Comments: A last minute decision to hike put me at the trailhead at noon. Easy stroll up with only a dozen others around the summit. Marlie celebrated the completion of her 6th round of 4ks and we enjoyed a nice break on the South Peak. It rained pretty steadily for the last 15 minutes of the hike but still an excellent day.
