| Comments: |
What a great day above tree line. I was happy that my schedule and circumstance allowed me to hike today in spite of work tomorrow. The trails are in great shape and are becoming well traveled with lots of summer foot traffic. I was disappointed that Monroe was so crowded with tourists... Tired of picking up cigarette butts! What a fantastic trip though. For a full write up, visit the blog. |
