Bugs
Bugs: None in the cool early morning, but by 11am or so the blackflies were swarming - only annoying if you stopped moving. Nothing biting.

Comments
Comments: Great day out for my first tractionless hike of the spring! Lots of sun down low, but cloudy on top. Ledges were dry. Saw a lot of people on this trail today - counted 28. And two moose on the way to the trailhead. Excellent day all around!
