| Comments: |
This hike was pretty straight forward today. You officially no longer need microspikes or any other special equipment to safely hike this mountain. The only snow I saw was about a 50 foot long monorail that you could walk beside that was in the shaded part of the woods right before getting to the sign that says Avalon 100 yards. Lots of water and mud but finally no snow! |
