Sadly, the trail closure around Wrightwood (due to the Bridge fire last year) was extended just days before we arrived in Wrightwood. With not much info available, it's been a scramble to work out howLeia mais

ViajanteThat looks amazing! It must be wonderful to come across this type of kindness as you travel through. The oranges 🍊 look wonderful!
