Rain early made humidity rise. Glad I brought 4 liters of water. Wet slippery rocks, no breeze made this a tough hike. Quick to hut only saw 2 others. Wet thru the boggy area then climb begins. Only 1 real crazy scramble but wet rocks made it a challenge. Saw only 6 heading down, once @ intersection short walk to tower. No views at all early. Clouds broke looking to Franconia. Only a few hikers then many from the tram. Back down Kinsman Ridge not as slippery many folks heading up. Lonesome Lake Trail as expected was a conga line heading to hut. Made it back to car just as the skies opened up! Humidity made this a tiring hike today. |
