| Comments: |
Where did all those rocks come from?? IT's been a while since I came from this side... The water crossings are small but the rocks are big and plentiful. Lots of slabs too on the upper trail. Chimney and Bypass after the main summit are in good shape. We took the bypass both ways. All in all a good day but will be holding off in the humidity from now on! |
