 | Comments: |
A beautiful day, although very hot! went through 3 liters + of water. decided to do the "loop" and take my chances finding a ride or roadwalk. Thankfully I did. I suggest a car spot if possible for anyone doing the same. The holiday mob was obviously on more popular peaks today. saw a few groups but not the crowd i was expecting. It's great to be back after a long spring ice season away. |
