Trout lilies are starting to bloom on the herd path! Also a couple of trillium blooming. Little River was high--crossing would have been a wet one. Checked out an impressive cascade section via a short bushwhack. Firewarden's Trail was gorgeous as always. First patches of snow at about 3400 feet. Continuous snow from 3700 feet to summit. FP postholed just once, my weight class not at all. On this particular hike we did not miss our snowshoes. Lots of time spent hydroengineering... okay, playing in the water. :) |
