| Comments: |
Some new trail exploration. Sphinx was full of beautiful waterfalls and at times the trail was the river (very wet in places). Lots of stream crossings! This trail required focus and deliberate foot placement but its was so enjoyable to discover this hidden gem. Great Gulf Trail was muddy. Six Husbands was super fun, especially going through the caves! Ladders and ledges were dry. |
