Comments
Comments: Most of the day was rain-free, only raining at the summits. Rain started at about 3900ft. I stayed almost completely dry across Mt. Tom and Mt. Field (thanks to my umbrella!), but after returning from Mt. Willey I was drenched due to brush on the trail. On Mt. Avalon the sun came out for a few minutes and the surrounding peaks became visible through the clouds...awesome!!
