 | Comments: |
I took a chance that the weather would hold during my hike. Clouds, no views, and very windy on the summits, but luckily not much rain at all while on the trails. Light traction was very helpful on the north facing sides of both North and South peaks. Rain started as I was heading down 93 afterwards. |
