| Comments: |
There were some puddles especially on Pumpelly, but all were avoidable. The bottom parts of White Dot and Cascade Links were very muddy, but it was not a big problem. The biggest issue was wet slippery rocks. Be careful coming down especially when stepping on rocks with wet moss. It's never a good idea to hike with sneakers, but especially not today. Wear good hiking shoes, preferably waterproof. |
