 | Comments: |
A really nice day for this hike. Clear sky early then partly cloudy. Great views from the various ledge viewpoints. Fog early on Flagstaff Lake then it cleared by 9 AM. Saw about 20 thru hikers either north bound or southbound. Hiked from East Flagstaff Road to Safford Notch Campsite and back. |
