Wow, what a day. When I saw the forecast of clear, blue sky and light wind I decided to hike to Mt.Isolation by the Glen Boulder Trail and spend a lot of time above treeline. I saw 12 hikers and 1 dog, the temps ranged from 30 to 60. There was some snow in the shaded sections of the trail where I wore light traction. Most of these trails were summer conditions. The views were really great in all directions with only a light breeze at times. |
