His black truck was still there when we finished (10pm). Many Many people in the parking lot (pre-hike and post-hike I'd guess) when we finished.

Comments
Comments: I saw a post saying the loop was muddy. I'm posting this because I think it was in good shape and mostly dry. I only notices a few muddy spots on GRT west of the pond. I wore Inov-8 Tarraclaw's and me feet stayed dry. I brought extra sox but did not need them.

This was my 13th Pemi-Loop. Franconia Ridge with clouds peeling away and winds gusting to probably 50mph was the coolest thing. Threatening to push us over, but still really fun.
