| Comments: |
Big plans turned quickly into just one peak. The GT is well packed super highway all the way to the summit. Thanks all for all the hard work. The snow bridges are unstable so use care when crossing. Lots of running water underneath. Wanted to hit gale head and twins but the GRT hasn't been touched since last storm and with the pouring rain and broken shoe it just wasn't in the cards today. Still a great day in the woods. Hopefully this cold snap firms things back up again. The GRT to Lafayette is not broken out either. |
