Another stellar day on this lovely peak. Trails are dry as a bone, except for one mud pit on CRT where the bog bridges have disintegrated. Great views from both peaks but cloudier than forecasted. Several through hikers still headed north and not too many day hikers out. Fairly quiet for a holiday weekend. Nice to meet Corinne on North Peak! |
