 | Comments: |
Views mostly socked in but did get a few interesting looks into VT, and over to the Garfield Ridge/Lafayette from either peak. The Presies were non existent today from either peak.
Snow free, both trails.
A large clear cut adjacent to the lower 1/3 of Cherry Mountail Trail has opened up a pretty nice view just off trail. The freshly cut woods nearby aren't exactly appealing to the eye but smelled great while hiking. |
