Comments
Comments: Nice destination today. Got up high without much crowd. Nice temps, some breeze and great views. Carter-Moriah Tr. was so nice and dry that I decided to go back the same way and double my enjoyment of hiking dry trails; something I haven't seen much of yet this year. One small patch of snow a little north of South Carter. Nice seeing familiar faces and meeting others. Those talked to who had come up Imp said that it was very wet.
