| Comments: |
Bareboots till Webshhter Cliff Trail then Micros for a bit then bareboots until descending Edmands Path. Today's intent was Pierce thru Isolation. conditions were ok to start with low/med winds and light snowshowers.Upon reaching Eisenhower winds has clicked up a notch and could see weather coming in from behind and some had already come around over Monroe and Washington. Made the decision to call it a day-no regrets definitely not ideal to be above treeline. |
