Besides the bog which is not great for drinking, there was only one spot on the entire trail with any water. There are numerous ledges which the traildoggies will have no problem with, but some of the beginners might find them a bit difficult. |

Despite the high temps in the valley, with an early start this was a fairly cool hike. The views were excellent. Many people on the trail today. |
