Comments
Comments: Great day at this end of the Presis. Washington visible as we drove up but then in clouds all day. We had toyed with the idea of heading over to Franklin but it was engulfed in clouds so we hit Pierce and Ike and called it. Not too many on the trails today - lucked out.

48 mins to Mizpah cutoff. 1.5 total to hut. Another 1/2 hour or so to Pierce. Forget how long over to Ike and then back to Pierce but left Ike at 11:15 and got to car at 1:30.
