| Comments: |
A river runs through it—the trail seemed like a flowing stream. Glad to have good boots. The lower half of the hike is covered with trout lilies. About 1/4 mile of icy monorail, otherwise wet, muddy, nice soft snow on the side of the trail. This hike had it all! Saw about 30 people today. 20 summiting, 2 turned back, 8 just out for a bit of a walk. |
