| Comments: |
Suddenly it’s summer! Hot/humid start. Trail is in great shape. Wet muddy in usual spots down low. No snow/ice until about 3200 feet. Spikes on between 3400-3500 feet until Ridge. Lot of snow, rotting monorail, ice. Once on Ridge could see smoke from fire rising near Mt Nancy area of 302. Beautiful on top, nice breeze. Clouds rolling in thunder, headed down to beat rain. |
