| Comments: |
It was a great day to hike Isolation. Since the last conditions report on this trail on 9/26 that reported dry trails and little mud, we got rain so I ended with wet, muddy boots - but who cares when you practically have the trail to yourself! We only saw about 4 people all day until the Davis Path and the summit. Despite the water and mud this is a great trail for an enjoyable 14 miles in the Dry River Wilderness. |
