 | Comments: |
Great day, enjoyed an amazing ten minutes of blue sky on Flume's summit and enjoyed the grand mountain panorama! Broke trial up all the way but at least 5 people came up after us and on the return trip the trail was well packed out and fast. Believe we were the only ones that used the herd path from the Basin parking area today.
