Comments
Comments: This loop was fairly dry. Nice views along ridge, Chin in clouds while I was up there. Rescue personnel said 2 hikers had gone up Hellbrook Tr. and needed assistance getting down. Directed them to Taft Lodge by cellphone communication and then 2 rescue workers hiked up to guide them down. Believe all was well. Weather held!!, light rain on drive home.
