 | Comments: |
Did not get a heavy rain so with the synthetic shirt, we did not need to add a rain coat. The wind made it a bit chilly on top but not too bad, from what I hear, warmer than Saturday. On our way up above the Asquam and Beaver Book junction we stopped and talked with Serena and Justin who will be opening the Notch Hostel in July. Looking forward to staying with them in the last half of the year at least once.
