Made the right call on skipping Bonds today and settled on out and back to Zealand. Clouds never lifted..fairly chilly and windy along the cloud draped ridge. Still a good day to be out though with spots of very brilliant color glowing out of the fog in places. Twinway was in great shape. Walk along the ponds and river down below reason enough for this hike today with some nice foliage showing despite the cloud cover and several groups were out doing just that. Saw a few south bounders and a fun group of ladies headed to Guyot..hope they get a good day for the Bonds tomorrow !! good to be out |
