 | Comments: |
Saw two other hikers on this route. Spent a lovely evening at Spruce Brook Tentsite.
Not too much of a challange except for the heat and humidity while hiking by the river. Took a few nice swims to keep cool along the way.
Spotted a variety of birds including grouse, kingfishers, broad winged hawk, and various song birds. |
