Comments
Comments: lower Harrington, Administration road, up summit road, upper West side trail, upper Old Indian, upper Mountain House, Link, middle Harrington

I broke trail heading up and by the time I was heading down, well-trodden paths were starting to form.

Hopefully no one will follow my bushwhack from the Harrington trail uphill to the Administration road! I kinda lost the trail and wandered a bit north (up hill).
