| Comments: |
Lower Crawford Path and above treeline were mostly dry. Some areas of mud and running water elsewhere from the continuing erosion. Hopefully this reconstruction project will make a big dent in stabilizing the trail.
Hot down low this afternoon/evening, but nice temperatures/breeze above treeline. |
