 | Comments: |
A mixed bag of trail conditions which is to be expected here. Both boots had a couple layers of mud by the end of the hike.
When I arrived at the summit there were only two other folks there - who had just completed their WM48! Congrats again! Only five others joined at the summit while I was there and I saw just three other hikers all day.
Thunder and light sprinkles started mid afternoon then after a dry spell rain accompanied by thunder and lightning came on when I was about .25 mile from the end. In all a very good hike to a great summit! |
