Comments
Comments: We could not pass up the beautiful day outside! We saw only a few spots of monorail up high in the woods but that will be gone soon enough. No need for spikes as it was super short lived and it is turning into spring snow as well. Only a small patch left in front of the hut as well. We did run into 2 boys who came up Huntington ravine with 16 oz of water and expected the summit building to be open for burgers and a ride down from the summit. I heard after that they walked under the no unauthorized personnel sign at least 2 times after being told no one is allowed in the building to empty the water jug. We also saw them asking people for food as they did not bring any either. Can't believe it has started already.
