 | Comments: |
A short, quiet hike to counter the masses across the street for Seek The Peak. Dry trail all the way thankfully, as the upper scrambles might not be so fun. On the way up we did the short side trip to Lady's Lookout, which is growing in. Excellent, clear views and bright morning sun really exaggerated the in-your-face view of Washington from Square Ledge. We could see waterfalls flowing in Raymond Cataract, and both Tuckerman and Huntington Ravines had areas of running water in slabby sections. |
