After a drive, I headed up Streaked, to the towers on its top. It's a relentlessly steep trail, and breaks into the open fairly quickly. The ledges were slick in spots due to the prior nights rain and showers coming through, some spots were drying out in the breeze. Strong views from up top, and a brilliant rainbow as I neared the summit. A tower (that came crashing down a year or so ago) is being replaced, and I met one of the guys who was pouring a new concrete footing for said new tower. Two people pulled up to start up the trail as I was leaving. |
