| Comments: |
Lots of muddy spots along tail, from minor to a few good boot sucking spots. Great views along Signal Ridge. Got a little wet from some showers near/on the summit. This made for some slippery spots. Found a still warm and smoky smelling fire site on summit from the evening before, also by the large pile of lumber on the summit there was the very strong scent of human feces. Please folks, Leave No Trace. |
