| Comments: |
From the summit of Mt. Roberts (the rest of the way) we broke trail. The switchbacks on the Faraway Mtn. Trail are endless so we cheated some and bushwacked down to bypass some of them. We were able to follow someone's ski tracks through the woods which was a huge help. Thanks Marianne for breaking trail. You were a machine today!!!! |
