Valley Way is one wet trail. Although i dunno if this is typical or just. Because of the recent storms. Airline was gorgeous along the ridge, windy but safely traversable for us. The views of King Ravine are stunning. The cut-off to the summit seemed ok at first but the further we went i found it difficult to pick my way over the boulders while directing the dog. After about 1/4 mile i decided we were no longer having fun and turned back. We headed over to Madison hut for soup and the sheltered views on the Parapet then down Valley Way. Even tho it was blustery i enjoyed Airline much more than Valley Way until i hit the Fallsway near the end. About 1/2 mile walk along Snyder Brook with falls and nice soft pine needle beds for weary feet. |
