Comments
Comments: Up Valley Way/Watson Path and down Air Line. Some slick and awkward footing on both lower sections of Watson Path and Air Line. Quiet trails on a gorgeous day. Nice chatting with an over 70 group; I'd have to see ID's to believe they were over 70. The mountains keep us young my friends.
