Trip Report

Some welcoming sun but it was the rain and wind on the last pitch of Trail 6 to the summit that persuaded us to bag the remaining four miles on Trail 2 and 4.
During introductions we each gave a tip to our guest Nancy:Don’t step on wet wood: roots and bridges. Stop walking, look around and enjoy view, then walk. Check the online trip listing every day. Carry water. Don't wear shorts if there is poison oak. Have a bag for muddy shoes at end of hike. Show up!
