| Comments: |
did the clockwise loop, we had great conditions but a little windy on the ridge. I carried microspikes but did not use them. This was # 195 and 196 on Copper's grid. All went well until I sprained my left ankle coming down south Hancock. I had a miserable 4 miles hike out. Fortunately, Brian S. from NY state stayed with me the whole way. THANK YOU |
