| Comments: |
Great day, aside from the copious mud and wet ledges; no surprise after a week of rain showers. The trails were in good shape. Just maybe 4 very short bits of monotrail ice patches, easily avoided. Day started with 47 deg F, mist & fog. It all burned off by about 11am. We had partly sunny skies and low 60 deg F temperatures. A great spring day to hike! |
