Plentiful water. Ice on rocks would've been manageable for them today; be much tougher with colder temps. Met Buddy today and we became friends after introductions. |

 | Comments: |
Morning hike and unfortunately clearing wasn't until later. Got quite wet from light mist and water blowing from trees. No views but nice to run into Pam, Nancy and Buddy on my way down (only hikers seen). Quite a lot of ice in the upper glades section; also lots of ice under the puddles between East Peak and summit. Poles helpful in here. Traction not used today but to state the obvious this trail has lots of running water on it and will be nasty with colder temps. Only snow seen was on the ski side of the Rim Trail and that wasn't much. |
