They were out! Got a few bites, one up the nose, and only ate three :) They could have been worse. We were grateful for the wind gusts and breezes along the trail to keep the swarms away. |

 | Comments: |
We had a great hike up Edmands Path and all the other trails to go up and over Eisenhower to Pierce and then Jackson. The Mizpah Hut is open and looking super shiny clean. The trails are in great shape. Very windy on the summits, which was great for keeping the bugs away and cooling us off. Trails were hopping with hikers, and most people were kind and generous, and moved off to the side to let others go by. At one point while ascending Eisenhower, though, my buddy said, "Looks like Angel's Landing!" which made me laugh. We were in a spot where it did look like a single file line to the summit, but once we moved further up we saw that people were spaced out and there was plenty of room. |
