 | Comments: |
Hiked in Saturday, stayed at Dry River Shelter #3. On Sunday, hiked up to the Lakes of the Clouds Hut, then to the Mitzpah Spring Hut, hitting Monroe, Eisenhower, and Pierce along the way. Camped at Nauman Tentsite next to Mitzpah Spring on Sunday night. Hiked out on Monday via the Mt Clinton Trail and Dry River Trail. It was cloudy and cool on Saturday, but it was perfect on Sunday and Monday - not a cloud in the sky (cool during the day and cold at night). And not many people on the trails, even the Crawford Path. |
