| Comments: |
Regretfully, we hiked these peaks in the pouring rain and clouds, never seeing any of the famed views, nor were we able to enjoy the bald ridge walking.
Even though they were not really open for summer business, Saddleback staff allowed us to come in and change in their restrooms (we asked first). |
