Lost and Found: a hiking pole....I have it. There was a group of four hikers and a pup ahead of me...so I assume it belongs to one of them. Email me if you want me to drop it somewhere.  
 
Comments
Comments: Long day. Trails were fast enough. Took the slide up and Brutus down. The water crossings slowed me down considerably. Need more practice. Glad I never have to tag the Owl again. This was #32 winter for me. God forbid I ever decide to start gridding.
