Wet,wet,and wet but there was rain for 2 days. Went up Mt Welch first thinking it easier to go up wet slabs than down them. Glad I did that. Both summits were in the clouds. Visibility was about 30 feet. Very eerie with absolutely no sound. Lapland rosebay was in bloom on the way down from Mt Welch to the col with Mt Dickey. Had to butt slide in a few areas coming down from Dickey. |
