| Comments: |
Holy shwow, I think it would have been cooler on the surface of the sun today. Up White Trail and down Blue Trail for a loop over Belknap. I skipped the fire tower climb. I was hoping for some of that ice that the "beware of falling ice" signs warn us about. The trails were damp in places; not sure if from earlier rain or just the humidity. Otherwise, things were arid. Nice to run into Erik out there, hope you found what you were looking for. |
