Great hike in spite of weather which was overcast, foggy and periodic rain showers. No views at all from summits and the wind was 30-50mph with short periods of heavy rain. Not a good day on the ridge and tough to pick up trail and cairns in the fog. Abandoned the idea of descending Falling Waters and backtracked to go down the way we came up which was Old Bridle Path. This trail was in good shape and passed quite a few people and kids coming down from and going up to Greenleaf hut. Caretaker said they had a full house last night but only ran into a half dozen folks on the ridge.
