 | Comments: |
Rainy day on the trail once we were closer to the summit but down below was sunny.
There is a lot of standing water and mud on Kilkenny Ridge close to the trail junction, which a few hikers commented on that were due to the recent rain. The cabin was open and it was a warm place to change into dry clothes for the hike down. It was really raining hard at the summit.
This is such an enjoyable hike. Really mellow. |
