Awesome day above treeline!!! Light winds; sun/eye protection needed in the bright sunlight. Went up and back Valley Way; I wasn't sure Randolph Path was completely broken out; from Valley Way it looked like maybe one or two people had used it. Ascended Adams directly into the sun; not on trail; I went via the peak above Star Lake. Jefferson ascent also directly into the sun. Some wind on the Gulfside descent. |
