Comments
Comments: Arrived early enough to avoid the crowds up, took the herd path around the first two crossings, but the water is low so crossings aren't a problem. Smooth sailing all the way up, mostly dry trails with a little mud before North Twin and in the col between North and South. Great to be up during the Flags on the 48, got to see the flags placed on South and North and could see the flag at Garfield.
