Ticks, ticks, ticks! I pulled three off of Isis and she's been treated with Advantix. Lots of buzzing but again, cloths treated with Permethrin seem to work. |

| Comments: |
How have I waited this long to hike this peak. What a great trip up and over ledges and in and out of the woods. Very little snow except by the cabin at the top. I'd definitely love to camp up here too. I am so happy that I can continue to do what I love. |
