Crest Mountain

We had a few hiccups early in the hike. I forgot my phone with the map track at home and I promptly led us on to the wrong trail followed by one of my patented bushwhacks. But by 9:45 we were on the trail going up on a beautiful sunny day.

I may be mistaken, but I’m certain that trail is steeper than the last time I hiked it. We didn’t hit snow until just below the summit plateau, and the snow on the plateau was patchy. We decided that due to trail conditions and time we would skip the summit and head to the overlook for lunch.

The views were fabulous and we had a nice rest. We made it down in good time and without incident. Thank you all for the pleasure of your company.
