All in all a good hike. Started out dry but returning to the trailhead from Rand's View the thunderstorms rolled through. It got kind of sketchy as I crossed Mount Prospect with lightning striking every couple of minutes. Only saw one other hiker all day, at Rand's View. I was able to get some good aerial video before the heavy rain arrived. Check the link below. |
