:doh: Sorry, had my second neck injection yesterday and it made me more of a retard than normal. Looked at the pictures before my first post, forgot about them by the second and then exposed myself as an idiot. :shrug: What else is new??? ;)

we had a pretty wet time the first two days (there are no pictures from theses days, details will be in the journals as soon as i post them).
Yeah, we had NO pictures from our trip. More than half the time you couldn\'t see 4 feet in front of you. Only in the valleys, like the avalanche pass (thanks, I forgot the name and am too lazy to look it up!) could we see fairly far. The trip took about 6 hours longer than my estimate, which would have been pretty close if it wasn\'t so foggy/ rainy.

Did you get some sun/ views?

Is this near Mt. Marcy? Looks so familiar! I did 4 days near and over Mt. Marcy a few years back. If this is the same wooden walkway, when we got to the end there was a very populated camp area filled with nOObs. When we took the trail north out of there we were in knee deep mud and water!!! Followed by a trail/ brook bed heading up the mountain. Did that trip with 3 women, only 1 of them experienced. Saw the sun on the way up in the truck and didn\'t see it again until we were driving home! :doh: Def. my "dampest" backpacking trip ever!! At least we were able to keep our packs and sleeping bags dry. PERFECT conditions for 2 women that have never done it before! :lol: Needless to say, they never did it again. :sigh:
yeah that\'s avalanche pass, it\'s in the same neck of the woods as marcy.  if you\'re heading south through the pass you\'d be heading towards marcy via feldspar.  we had a pretty wet time the first two days (there are no pictures from theses days, details will be in the journals as soon as i post them).
