It was a fine day on the trail. Skies weren't perfect per se, but full of clouds that occasionally covered the sun. On the other hand, some of the pictures were all the better for having some billowy clouds, and they did a lot to keep the sun from beating down so hard -- it was still plenty sunny enough to take the edge off the colder temperatures.
Blueberries are plentiful between Franklin and Eisenhower. Closer to Eisenhower, they're very plump and sweet. Get 'em while they're still good!
Photos and a more detailed trip report are on my blog, as always. |
