| Comments: |
Excellent late morning hike of these two with outstanding views at lower elevations leading to a near zero visibility at summit of Mt Moriah. I paid the toll on the summit and quickly descended. Skies cleared once again by the time I reached Mt Surprise. I met ten other hikers enjoying this mild January day. |
