 | Comments: |
Mistake not bringing the snowshoes this time - they took a ride last couple of hikes - tough conditions in any case with the monorail de-stabilizing quickly
Startled a bear walking up Sawyer Rd and he scrambled up a tree and watched us continue walking away from his perch up there!
Met only one other friendly hiker along the way, very considerate left a note on the car to make sure we got down OK as it was tough conditions, long day |
