| Comments: |
Beautiful trail and beautiful summit views. Heard a goshawk on the way in and out, heard winter wrens, saw juncos, white throated sparrows, and saw a raptor hunting for dragonflies (there were so many dragonflies- really neat!) that looked like a kite but no positive ID. Lots of butterflies, lillies, and sheeps laurel. |
