OTHH hikes on a Tuesday but it rained so we took our hike today. We were amazed at the number of people on the trail especially from S. Twin to Galehead hut. Lots of fun talking to so many thru' hikers, many doing the Pemi loop and so many camping out overnight. A really good experience for all of us. We enjoyed the sociality of it all, as well as a gorgeous day, great views and good fun! |
