Well, I started late today, but I knew it would be a short one and I was hoping that I would beat the rain. About 15 minutes in it started to sprinkle on me which I opened my umbrella for about 5-10 minutes before that has stopped. the day stayed gloomy, but the sun did pop out on multiple times and the wind has kept up. Plenty of people on the mountain today all in good spirits, even though it was forecasted that it would rain all day. It’s been a few months since I’ve been here and definitely a few new blow downs from this summer. All in all a good day out. it started to rain probably the last mile but knowing that I was going to be at the Car I didn’t put any rain jacket or umbrella up , just fine. I got to the car. |
