Trip Report

The rain held off but the clouds lingered covering up the moonrise at 5:21.Thus we also didn't linger on top but headed down while it was still light,, and we could enjoy the sunset colors in the western sky. Because of last minute work meetings, Gordon Sayre started the later on a shorter route and made to the top at 5:15. We must have just missed connecting with him.
