Comments
Comments: One of my favorite hikes on a beloved trail. Hiked up to the White Ledges above Lake Solitude. Other than leap frogging a couple on the way up, I had the ledges all to myself. Weather could not be better. Trail is really in great shape. Some muddy sections, all avoidable. First hike where I didn't even take spikes. Lots of people ascending when I was coming down.
