 | Comments: |
Beautiful day. Had the trail almost to ourselves until Guyot. Was concerned about forecast possible thunderstorms in the afternoon, so hiked quickly to Bondcliff. Took more time coming back. This is a long hike, esp. the out and back (a lot of elevation going back as well). We did not have time for a car spot at Lincoln Woods. Zealand hut is now open and has water available. Lots of people out for the day. Saw many of them on the way back from Bondcliff. |
