Both Bryan and Jeb did a nice job of describing the trail conditions today. It was a pleasure meeting Bryan at the hut and hiking with him up S Twin and over to N Twin. Microspikes went on at the first water crossing and stayed on until the last crossing. Saw fresh tracks heading up the Firewarden's trail to Hale. |
