 | Comments: |
A very wet day on the trails. Standing water was very common. Lots of mud too. The river crossing was a little tricky. I saw some people turn back due to the river. Fast moving clouds and fog at the summit. Surprisingly not too much foliage to view either. Waterproof boots are a must for this one right now. I wish I had remembered gaitors too, the mud was pretty deep and hard to avoid in some places. |
