Fantastic day for views on Mt. Height, in fact we had lunch early there and hung out for almost an hour as it was that nice! Slack-packed to South Carter from Zeta Pass and back before heading up to Height and Dome. Bunch of thru hikers coming through all day on the ridge. Also stopped and hung out at the outlook over Cater Notch and the lakes for a bit as well. Busy on the ridge and all the way out, but only saw 1 other person on the hike up on 19 mile and Carter Dome trails until Zeta Pass. Tasty snacks were had at the hut and we cooled off at the dam on 19 Mile Brook on the way out! |
