| Comments: |
It was relatively warm for mid-November (40s), but it was drizzly. The winds were very strong as we approached the summit and they literally pushed us up to the top! It was too blustery to stop, so we tagged the summit and turned right around and headed back down. We only saw one other couple all day, and they were not climbing the mountain. It seems as though we had the mountain to ourselves. |
