Comments
Comments: Truly gorgeous morning to be out, mostly sunny. Temps just right for a workout, complete with ample breeze. Upon returning to lower elevations shortly after noon, things were starting to get a little muggy.

As prior report indicated, just a couple of minor snow patches, fully avoidable.

Had to deal with a dog poop bag [generously filled] lying lying on the trail behind Cabot Cabin, and a discarded, broken hiking pole on the KRT near the old Mt. Cabot Trail junction. Would be a big plus if folks didn't rely on others to take care of their waste.
