Bugs didn't start bothering us till early afternoon. Resorted to applying bug spray. |

Saw a fanny pack half way up the Signal Ridge trail but it was near some of the trail maintenance. We figured that person would be back for it. |

| Comments: |
It was a perfect day. We summited early so we were alone for an hour. The views were as advertised. The temperatures were just right. We only saw 3 other people the whole day. The Sawyer river road is easy to walk but does gain some elevation. #42 |
