| Comments: |
Made good time. All was good until the junction of LLT and Cascade Brook Trail on the way out.
The skies opened up and continued until we reached the car. Hail for good measure (hurts when it hits you). Saw lots of ill prepared hikers going to Cannon. Serious water rushing down the trail. The stream (West Branch of Pemi?) by Lafayette Campground really came up. Impressive and scary how fast it happened. |
