Comments
Comments: Great adventure with kiddos today! Started at 9:30 it rained lightly all way to the loop. Great timing as it stopped just as we started up North and stayed dry rest of the day. Everything was obviously soaked though, which made things exciting! James’ first real rain hike and he did great. Quiet day only saw five other humans and two gray jays who stalked us the entire ascent up North! Great moody views from summit.
