 | Comments: |
The upper part of the trails around 1,5 miles to the summit was wet, rocks were covered with water, and i slipped several times, beside that it was not that bad, i met several volunteers repairing the trail from Garfield to Galeahed area. It was very hot and humid, i run out of water, but thankfully i filled up at the galehead hut. After all it was nice day beside the fact that my dog could not walk back to the car.. |
