| Comments: |
Cold and windy start this morning. Trails were a bit damp to start after the rain from yesterday. Down low there is a pretty good blanket of leaves on the trail now. Higher up the trails were quite muddy and wet but we managed to stay dry. Frost, ice and frozen mud made an appearance once on the ridge. Nice hike for number 47! |
