| Comments: |
Tried to start early enough to beat most of the heat and humidity. Trails were mostly dry with pockets of mud. There are a couple of larger mud pits on the Fire Wardens Trail that people are skirting around causing more damage. Nice view of the trees from the summit. Didn't see anyone else all day. Made it back to the parking lot by 10:30 and beat most of the heat and humidity. |
