| Comments: |
It was a very hot and humid day to hike. Thankfully, there was a nice breeze on the peak. The trails were definitely more wet than last week with the additional rain and everything felt damp from the humidity, making things slippery and more muddy. Almost lost a shoe in the mud, but for the most part, it's avoidable. Just watch your step and avoid the logs. To beat the heat, I soaked my feet in the last water crossing on my return. Hit the spot! |
