Nice cool day to hike the middle of the Carter range. Hiked up through a cloud on the North Carter Trail and the trail was so tight it was like we were in a car wash the whole time with the dew on the trees (see maintenance notes). Undercast once at the view from just north of Middle Carter on the way out and overcast on the way back! A few AT thru hikers out today going NOBO. Imp face was spectacular on the return trip- spent a bunch of time just hanging on the ledge catching the views! |
