Comments
Comments: The sun came out for a nice view from Willard, which somehow I’ve never hiked despite 300-something four thousand footers. Aside from one very short, very shallow, and very narrow section of monorail, the ice and snow were gone today. In their place was a river of water on the trail. The upper 2/3 of this hike are WET. Consistent water running down the trail wet. I was glad to have waterproof boots. People wearing sneakers, sandals (yes, one guy was wearing sandals….was interesting), etc. were having trouble staying dry.

Awesome view. I can see why people love this hike so much.
