 | Comments: |
Despite NOAA's forecast and the outlook of Mountainforecast.com the weather was pretty decent. I stopped to use the bathroom at the Lafayette and was shocked to see so many people willing to head up despite less than optimal Spring conditions. The WMNF crew was there urging hikers to dress and prepare for inclement weather. |
