 | Comments: |
Aborted Zealand hike and headed to treeline on this excellent above treeline day. Cool breeze...warm sun..some shade from passing clouds at times..excellent. Trails in good shape especially Jewell on descent . Enjoyed dropping down 6 Husbands from the summit and the excellent views into the gulfs from there. Good day out with OTHH claude and grumpy gram |
