 | Comments: |
The trail to the water crossing was somewhat dry but beyond that Edmands Path was wet and sometime wet and muddy until you approach the alpine zone. At one point you basically follow a steep stream bed before the trail starts to level out a bit. About midway up the trail the black flies were plentiful but strangely enough they disappeared as we approached Crawford Path. Regardless, is still a beautiful trail and a really pleasant hike especially above tree line to the summit loop with some of the best views I’ve seen to date. The trail was busy for a weekday but we were all happy hikers glad to have made the journey! |
