Comments
Comments: This was a nice, quick workout of just less than 2.5 hours RT. It is wicked steep, but footing is generally very good. There was some mud and standing water in the lower sections, but nothing too bad. The only people I ran into was a very nice group, which included my old friend Keith, who I had not seen in a while. Glad you recognized me, Keith! Hope you all had a super hike!!
