Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: I finally got to meet the peak bagging wonder dog Pepper on top of Zealand. Pepper was redlining and working on his second grid round. Really nice dog, along with a couple dozen others that I met today. Little if any water between Zool hut and lowest crossing on Bond Cliff Trail, other than side trip to Guyot campsite. 
Bugs
Bugs: Slight breeze kept the hordes of black flies on all three Bond summits at bay. 
Lost and Found

Comments
Comments: Fine weather for completion of second August and solo August grid rounds. No PR today, as took my time lingering at Zool and on the summits. Met lots of AT through-hikers.
