 | Lost and Found: |
FOUND: short sleeve REI shirt near Willey outlook. I believe it was a size M. Light color. I don’t recall seeing it upon arrival, but everyone I asked said they didn’t lose anything. Dropped it at the AMC Highland Center lost and found. |

 | Comments: |
Nothing special to note here. Saw maybe a dozen people at most all day. The trail was wet in a few spots from water running over it. The ladders were in good shape. Only a couple had missing or slightly worn steps, but nothing of concern. |
