 | Comments: |
Beautiful day. It was 30 degrees when I started, but there was very little wind and it was very comfortable. Beautiful sunshine and great views for most of the hike. It was a popular place to be on this day, but only on the main trails and near the summit, not on the Woodland/Vistamont/Skyland and Elwell/Back 80 Trails. |
