Comments
Comments: We had a great day out with our hiking club crew. Switched the hike from Sat to Sun and so happy we did. The views of Flagstaff lake were spectacular, the light very nice for good haze free, nicely exposed photos. Congrats and big shout outs to Lynn (NEHH fin) and Erik (NH48 fin) This one's a keeper, worthy of many do overs.
