Several large stepovers, and a couple of crowns down in the Pemi Trail between the Old Man site and Basin Cascades. Some new erosion where it draws close to the Pemi near the Basin, but overall not in bad shape. |

The afternoon hike, down the Pemi Trail, up and back on Basin Cascades, and out. Continued chilly, cloudy, breezy, and just generally raw. Some blowdowns to negotiate, but decent considering. |
