Comments
Comments: Perfect day in the northern presis. Love the King Ravine & the little one had a blast in the caves and through the boulders. Did not see anyone until the Adams summit cone going up. Had the peak to ourselves for ~5 mins! Madison Hut & Madison were busy with a couple of groups and a bunch of thru hikers. Again saw no one from the Madison Hut to the car on the way down.
