 | Comments: |
Perfect moist wet soggy Sunday for a little lap up these peaks. Stream crossings were very tame and the trail only really started puddling down low after it poured again early afternoon. Winds were mean at both summit outlooks and really made us grateful for not choosing to venture above treeline today, that would be absolutely miserable in todays conditions. We went up South and down North and passed a surprising number of people ascending as we descended. Curious to see how trails react to todays rain in the am tomorrow |
