 | Comments: |
Though overcast with occasional sprinkles, the rain didn't start coming down in earnest until we started up the Eisenhower loop. In this same area, at the upper part of the Edmands Path, the wind picked up getting progressively higher in direct relation to altitude.
At the summit it was blowing a steady 24 with gusts up to 30. The wind chill was in the mid 20's so we snapped the requisite pics and hustled back down into the trees. Aside from the wind and rain it was a great hike. |
