 | Comments: |
I'm not sure why people were not on the summits! Warm and clear skies! Met many folks and a number of canines in the perfect weather; stayed at Madison Springs hut before their close on Saturday which gave me 2 days of sun and fun!; Up Valley Way and then roamed - Lowes a few stretches of running water on the steep pitch heading down to Randolph some wet rock that was slick; Randolph - some minor stretches of water and mud; minor patches of mud on short line and airline. |
