Comments
Comments: The last time I hiked the Twins we did a car spot and went up Gale River Trail and back down North Twin. Today’s was up and back. They’re equally difficult—especially the haul up to South Twin from the hut. Not sure if I have a preference overall though since the final push to North Twin isn’t a cakewalk going the other way.
