Great rainy morning hike through the woods and for the Hancocks. Started the hike in moderate rainfall until reaching Hancock Loop Trail and rain subsided to sporadic showers and drizzle. plenty of wet rocks and slick mud. went for a quick but unpleasant butt slide as I first was descending the South loop. Never a fan of sliding especially in mud in July🙃. it was nice meeting a few fellow Wanderers on the trail today!
