 | Comments: |
wet trail all day. some mud and standing water in the usual spots particularly on the cedar brook trail where it has been washed out. some patchy snow and ice on the ridge all of no consequence. mud pits below south peak mostly frozen with some ice.
nice hike despite the cold wet weather. pretty cold up on the ridge, but all precipitation was in the form of rain while we were out there. thanks to cynthia for hiking on this less than ideal day.
