 | Comments: |
The Perpendicular Trail is a work of art. Very impressive rock work finding a route up the steep face of Mansell Mountain. Trails were wet from the previous days of rain. Descending the Mansell Mountain Trail was a bit tricky with the wet ledge. Some views along the way as the clouds had lifted in the afternoon a bit. |
