Got a late start which worked to my advantage. Bare booted till about 1/4 mile past the flume slide junction where I wore micros until I got back to about the same spot. When I arrived at liberty the gusts were still pretty strong. By the time I passed over to flume the wind diminished to nothing and I perched myself on the peak in just a t shirt for about a half hour. The weather remained perfect for my passback thru liberty. Amazing afternoon! |
