 | Comments: |
It was cold (40 degrees) and there was no 'high' temperature. The wind was blowing 30 mph. The ground was wet after a night of rain. The landslide on Owl's Head Path was slippery and very steep. We didn't see any, but there were many bear alerts. The whole trip took 9 and a half hours. |
