 | Comments: |
A redlining loop up Castle Ravine. Rough footing from The Link to the headwall. The headwall was not as difficult as we expected, no problem following the cairns and a nice breeze. It took us about an hour to make it to the top. We saw a large bear on The Link between Lowes Path and Israel Ridge Path. Met 6 people all day. |
