 | Comments: |
Cool breezy start, trails were dry early. North Carter was the driest I’ve ever seen it. Views into Wild River & Northern Prezis early. Muddy spots were fairly dry early. Steep climb to Mt Height as the clouds rolled in. Very windy & chilly here no views for the rest of the day. Easy to Dome, on/off rain starts here. Steep wet slippery rock heading down, same on climb to A. Muddy in all the usual spots as the rains continued. Longer to D than usual as rocks were slippery. Met a group of 4 on D platform having a summit beer, we joined in. Ski trails were wet so we stayed for the most part on the gravel roads. Long day, but so much fun.
Big thank you to the mother/daughter who gave me their water at the bottom of Dome. Hope the hut was fun! |
