This was my favorite six peak challenge thus far. The forest was still damp from last week’s tropical  storm and to top it off, it was drizzling, foggy, and windy. It reminded me of the Olympic coast. I made good time going up but coming down was tough on my knees lol. I brought 3L of water and a water filter but did not use it. However, there several good creeks where can collect water if you want to minimize what you carry. Keep on trucking!
