 | Comments: |
We met a few people on the summit of Isolation. Congrats to Annie from Bristol for her 48 finish. We only had one car and I thought we'd go back up Glen Boulder but my friends did not want to tackle the rock scrambles back down (climbing elevation wasn't the fear factor) so we returned via Rocky Branch. I was lucky and only had to hold my thumb out for a few minutes before I was picked up and deposited back at Glen Ellis to fetch the car. Very nice day on the trails. |
