| Comments: |
Encountered some really adverse weather in the morning, heavy rain, thunder, lightning and hail. The storm passed through and things cleared by mid-day. Of note is how much the rivers had risen during the period of time between the ascent and descent. No problem rock hopping across all crossings on the way out; however, on the return trip in was necessary to wade across - -calf/knee deep at several of the crossings. There was also significant deep standing/running water and mud. |
