| Comments: |
Busy day as it was the weekend of flags on the 48. easily saw 100+ people from start to finish. many of them were friendly, some seemed annoyed by the crowd. Saw a few breaking trail etiquette and a few of them (youngsters) were even walking on the delicate vegetation up top - kinda made me mad but didn't have a chance to tell them off because they had earbuds in. |
