Comments
Comments: the big deal today was the 6 husbands trail. i finally got it done. it was fun and thrilling and hard work. a young guy from boston caught up to me on the 2nd ladder and we hiked up to near gulfside. i was slowing him down. the jefferson summit was very crowded. the hike down caps ridge was tough and tiring after all the hard work. good day though. it also finishes the terrifying 25!
