Thanks very much, WanderingDaisy, for the very helpful reply. Your suggested way of trying out the waters first sounds like a great idea -- and hopefully I'll get to try it next summer!

Thanks for the advice and for the wonderful TR.

WD --

Beautiful trail report! I like the fact that you took off on your own. Solo trips are often the most rewarding.

As of 11/6/2018 the rendering of your images via PhotoBucket is not worthy of what you see here @ HST. The ad driven version of the PhotoBucket website is a serious eye sore.

I agree, but I refuse to pay their extortion. I now post photos directly. For a long time Photobucket simply deleted the photos on old trip reports. Even though an "eyesore", better than nothing.
