A fantastic hiking day! Nice clear air and blues skies with clouds floating by. This was the first time I had done Willey from Ethan Pond end. It has plenty of steep but I loved it. Solo hiked and never saw a soul until I met three different couples on the way down. Excellent views from the ledges into the Pemi and across to Webster Cliffs. Views down the notch were superb. My first time back to Willey in over 20 years. |
