Looks like you're making the best of it. The weather there is a reminder how close we are to fall and winter here in Wisconsin. I love our 4 seasons, but Im not ready to move on from summer yet. We had excessive heat warnings the last 2 days, so there's not much going on outside here either. Im glad you guys aren't pushing it through the weather and are being safe. Thank you to the AF vets for helping y'all out.❤
You've got this happy hikers.❤
✌️🫶🤜🤛❤️

You did exactly what I had to do! I stayed Mizpah, then we hiked to lake of the clouds trying to beat a storm, we failed lol. Then the next day was better but not great for the rest. We did hang out on top of Washington for hours so we could recharge our batteries a bit. Then stayed at the campground just below tree line. One of the hikes I was hiking with got a shower at one of the huts in exchange for stirring the pooh for the staff
