| Comments: |
Lower elevation trails were reasonably dry, but there was some mud. A little wet higher up, as a summit fog was holding in the afternoon and evening.
The current open route to the summit for hiking is from the base of the Superstar lift. The Snowdon side is closed for construction (lifts, tunnels, blasting, etc.).
Leaves just starting to turn, but not yet near peak. |
