Trip Report

It was too cloudy to view the moonrise but the sunset colors were spectacular. Angie led the faster hikers while Peg and I brought up the rear. It was fun to meet up with the hikers on the shorter hike if one could recognize them with their masks.

The September Bulletin is online now.
