 | Comments: |
This was a great hike. Trail to Mt Hight wasn’t well traveled and packed down, but still manageable easily. Views from Mt Hight were the best with an awesome undercast and view of northern presi’s. Snow builds as you climb elevation. Lower elevations were wet with some puddles, but avoidable. |
