Comments
Comments: Day two is tough... The GRT is not kind with all it's ups and downs... Crowded at the popular spots and makes me long for winter again. We stopped at the hut briefly but it was too crowded for us. We hit the summit and found a nice place for the night just off the outlook. Perfect night to sleep up there after a good dinner.
