 | Comments: |
It was the coldest/windiest going over Guyot, but before and after that, the wind/cold was amazingly manageable. MANY thanks to the two young men that had broken the trail up to Zealand. That was a huge energy saver. And many thanks to my hiking companion, Brian, who braved the cold with me. |
