 | Comments: |
Delighted to find mostly pleasant (albeit wet) trail conditions. I was expecting the whole trail to be running water, but water bars are doing their job for the most part! Snow/monorail started about a mile from the summit at the last water crossing (just before the switchbacks, at about 3k) and was solid even in the rain. Rock spikes to the summit and back to that spot.
See lost and found. |
