Awesome weekend for an overnight, 2 day Pemi Loop. Ran into countless trail runners banging out quick miles and more than a few other backpackers. The mountains were alive! Views were stunning and the wind was intense coming across the Bonds on Saturday. Looked like Guyot was aiming to be full Saturday afternoon, so my guess is Garfield site wasn't far behind. There's nothing quite like the drop and climb between Lafayette and Garfield, but it's a beautiful part of the trail. Totally encourage anyone looking to get into backpacking to give it a go! |
