 | Comments: |
Trails were mucky today, even though there were only a few brief sprinkles of rain. Lots of wet rocks and roots, puddles, mudpits, failed bog bridges, etc. ("Other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?").
Mizpah Hut was still open with baked goods and only one reservation for tonight.
Cloudy day with occasional sprinkles and glimpses of sun. Summits in the clear. Some decent fall foliage colors starting to emerge in places in the notches. |
