| Comments: |
Jogged/hiked/scrambled/ran the Tripyramid loop today, and beat any forecast weather, in fact it was sunny for most of our trip. Smooth going up to the base of the North Slide, mercifully dry and grippy conditions going up, across the ridge, and out by the South Slide. Beautiful running below South out to Livermore. A nice breeze on the slides and ridge kept things cooler, but it was downright hot on Livermore Trail/Road. A great few hours out tagging slides and peaks with Ashley. |
