| Comments: |
Ascended to Boott Spur - generally dry trail below treeline, with some short mud pits (you can dance around them or balance on some sticks) and a few puddles. Above Boott Spur, some rock was slippery due to the fog. Took Camel Trail over to the hut (and Monroe), then Crawford Path to Washington. Returned via Crawford Path and Southside, then descended Tuckerman Ravine Trail. Trail had some running water on it near the waterfall areas, resulting in some slippery rock in places. Dry from the floor of the ravine to the base. |
