| Comments: |
Liberty Spring wet and muddy after the 4th stream crossing for about a hundred yards, otherwise no other problems. Actually the trails are in very good shape considering all the rain that we have had.
Thanks to John, Mike and Kevin in helping put up John's flag on the summit at 11 am (this flag had flown over the American Embassy in Kabul, Afganistan). Waited for Frodo and his friends to hoist the official flag on Liberty for FOT48. Up by noontime. His 96 square foot flag was really waving big time. |
