 | Comments: |
Trails in good condition, foliage was colorful, leaves starting to fall in today's breeze.
Three gray jays at summit mooching snacks, we happily obliged. One had a leg band, I didn't get the code off from it though.
Crossed paths with a dozen or so people. The Sugarloafs looked to have many hikers today, that lot was well overflowed onto the road.
Happy to be revisiting the 48 with my friend who is just starting that journey. |
