| Lost and Found: |
A man wondering around at the first crossing of the glade in jeans and a t-shirt on a cell phone. He was terrified of Kali. He looked pretty lost, we summitted and turned around and he was still making his way up and was now at the Cannon Cliffs view point. I asked if he was okay but the dog really was scaring him, so I moved on. |

Kali and I decided to get in some mountain time alone on our way up for some family time. Good thing seeing as this ended up being all the hiking we did this weekend. Leaving the Kinsmans out there for a big finale! Gorgeous sunset, great hiking weather, a little slippery on the way down but we had a great time running by the light of a headlamp. Record timing for us! |
