| Comments: |
Nice loop up this busy peak, many others out this morning. Trails were mixed between dry and wet with occasional mud. The ledges up high were mostly dry with an occasional wet area from a running seep. White Cross Trail had a short bit that more resembled a brook but it was easy enough to stay dry. Nice views with some dark clouds threatening so we didn't stay too long on the summit. Starting to see more reds in the woods below as the foliage begins to change. |
