Goat Mountain — Friday, Oct. 20, 2000

North Cascades > Mount Baker Area

Almost complete solitude (only passed 2 luckily unsuccessful hunters on their way down). A little fog, a little sun. A dusting of snow at about 4000 feet to about 2 inches beginning around 5000 feet. While it was just a little too wet and cold to lay around on top & enjoy the views for very long, the quiet and solitude more than made up for it. Alot of water and mud on trail from snow melt over 4000 ft level.
