 | Comments: |
It was a gorgeous day to be outside. It was a little brisk but still clear as day. The great gulf has some amazing spots on it for sure to camp. We left at 7am and returned tot he car just before 6pm. The six husbands trail is no joke. It has ladders, and scrambles and lots of elevation. The top was not the greatest with people just sitting right in the way of the top. We ate on the gulfside and then headed down the sphinx trail which is not too horrible to go down as i would never go down six husbands. The great gulf trail til you meet back up with six husbands is quite narley but couldn't imagine the 4-5 people we saw at 330 heading up the trail to sphinx for the top and planned on descending that evening. All in all great time up on Jefferson! |
