 | Comments: |
A wonderful welcome back to the woods for us two human hikers who have ambitions for longer and steeper terrain later in the season. This suited our abilities and provided some challenging sections (especially due to the wet, slick conditions) and some easy sections where we could just zone out and listen to the birds. Note that due to the slickness, we didn't do the ladders and caves. Tried, but too slick today for us. Happy weekend, all you hikers out there. |
