 | Comments: |
Last minute decision to hike Pitcher Mt. today. I thought the trails up north would be too sloppy.
Did the loop counter-clockwise. The trail up was soft then turn muddy with running water, near the top there was small
section of ice. No need for traction, it was only 40 feet worth.
The jeep road coming down was a muddy mess nearer to the top, then change to just soft closer to the bottom. |
