hit up a couple of new trails for a few of us on this trip today..Great Gulf going was fine except for some blowdowns after Wilderness sign..6 Husbands Trail was fun but caution needed for the caves, ladders, and somewhat wet rock scrambles..boulder hopping up high of course and same on Castle..we did slip a few times on the wet rocks on both 6 Husbands and Castle Trail..one lady descended 6 Husbands from near Gulfside though we offered her a ride back to Great Gulf parking via hike back with us.. |
