Comments
Comments: Great day for a counter-clockwise loop over Firescrew and Cardigan! It was quite windy at the summit of Cardigan, but that's to be expected. Down low, trails are ever so slightly muddy or dry. We did not encounter any snow. All in all, a great day to hike...we finished before the rain arrived!
