Comments
Comments: Not a very early start so I thought I would be all alone on the trails. I met one couple on Willey that were only doing that mountain and just before the A-Z trail I passed 2 girls who had just done Tom and were headed to Willey, it was afternoon then and they were dressed in cotton sweat pants. I guess they made it alright. If there were other hikers I missed them as I went up Field and Willey before going to Tom. The trail had some avoidable mud but otherwise was great. It was windy on top of Field and part of the way to Willey but that pushed any clouds away. The sky cleared and I had beautiful views of snow covered presies. Great day out even if I was alone.
