Comments
Comments: Beautiful day, blue skies, very little wind. Maybe passed thirty hikers, all in good spirits. Trillium and lady fingers line the trail. The spring water at Galehead hut is superb. Steep climb to the summit of South Twin is worth the view. Surprised by how little mud and bugs there were! Some areas of wet rocks made them a little slippery, but all in all fantastic conditions.
