Comments
Comments: Beautiful trail start to finish. The first few miles are just serene along and over the river and pond. Hut was a nice stop before tackling the immediate steep ascent. Zeacliff views are outstanding even with a partially overcast sky. Fun network of bog bridges after leaving Zeacliff. The push to the summit is a mildly rugged alpine forest with occasional peeks through the trees. It was a great day to be out and meet some Thru hikers.
