 | Comments: |
A lovely day and a great hike. There were six of us and we saw only six additional hikers the entire day. We started at 5:30 AM with headlamps and ended at 5:40PM with headlamps. The trail was in excellent condition. The mud was mostly frozen so it was my first hike in my last six that I made it out with dry feet. A definite pleasure. |
