Comments
Comments: A muggy Saturday morning for a hike!

Went up the West Ridge Trail to the summit of Cardigan. Boy was it muggy out--you know it's bad if you're pouring sweat on the way down. Wasn't much to see at the summit due to the clouds. Nice breeze at the summit. Made the trip in about an hour and 45 minutes. Spent more time in the car than hiking!
