 | Comments: |
Some puddles and minor mud from Zealand Hut to Guyot. Wet rocks also; but winds had mostly dried things out in the Bonds area. Knock you off balance winds at times near Bondcliff and Guyot. Views were excellent all day. 7:05-6:40 on trails with many view stops and nice conversation with other hikers out today. Great area to be in on days like today! |
