| Comments: |
Went up Bobcat which was a slick, muddy mess. Original plan was to descend as well but we rolled the dice with the old, gravelly jeep road (Coot) and it was actually very pleasant and much drier. another hazy day at the top. Margaret climbed halfway up the tower before calmly deciding that was high enough. She has made a lot of progress with fire towers this season so I was proud of the bravery. Great convo with a 52WAV finisher and her group who were familiar with my Storrs Pond shirt and the Hanover area in general. #50/52WAV for Margaret. |
