 | Comments: |
The glen boulder trail was dry and all the scrambles and ledges were dry. Above glen boulder some snow in the treed areas. Lots of snow drifts on lower Davis Path but even though they were often 2 or 3 feet deep they were consolidated and no post holing. No traction was needed. I carried my gaiters but didn't need them. Going out Rocky Branch reminded me why I came up Glen boulder. Water water and more water, wet rocks running in the trail and standing in the trail. What a beautiful day. shorts and sleeveless all the way. Met someone on Isolation and walked out with him. Got a ride back to my car in the side car of his Russian motor cycle. Fun! |
