 | Comments: |
It was a beautiful day for Cannon! Great views from the ledge and the summit. Plenty of nice folks on the trail. Soft monorail from the first views of Echo Lake to the outlook. I bare booted to the summit, but put spikes on for the descent on the snowy section. Plenty of wet rock slabs. Yet, still a lovely day. |
