Comments
Comments: these trails are fantastic and the terrain is varied and interesting and the views from all the ledgey areas are spectacular. met two folks on the summit of E. Royce, a solo hiker on Basin Rim, and a small group of young women at the top of Meader and that was it for the entire day. crowd free hiking!
