Comments
Comments: Nice rainy day hike. Got pretty much completely soaked all day. Spent approx 1 hour on North Randolph looking for actual highpoint - two seemed to be almost the same height. Spent a while looking for highpoint of Crescent as well. The summit areas appear to be a gigantic bear "manure" zone - we could NOT believe how much we saw/avoided!!!! The best was the log apparently used as a bear-toilet seat!!!! EEEEK!!!! Great day! Thanks Hiker Ed for this hike!!!!
