ПутешественникGlad you got some hiking in even with the trail issues. The area you were in was beautiful. Have you had good weather? We've had showers. Today they seem to be going around us.
ПутешественникUp to now, it was all good sunny to partly cloudy with temp in high 70s to mid 80s. It started raining today around 5pm or so, and prognosis are for a total washout tomorrow ang a good chances of rain all the following days. If so, the hikes might have to be canceled, although I did bring ponchos. Perhaps we might play tourists then... we'll see...
