 | Comments: |
Managed to squeak a hike in just as the rain and clouds cleared. Made for a slog however; nonstop running water on the steep sections and unavoidable mud holes on the "plateau" just before the final summit push on the approach from the North. Bog bridges along lonesome lake were just barely above the water in places, some slightly underwater. Until we get a little respite from the rain, you'll end up with wet feet on this route. |
