Great company and a great hike! The entire hike turned out better than expected. I was under the impression from other reports that Madera Canyon was torched. This is not the case at all. The eastern flank of Wrightson is what burned. A good portion of this hike is shaded with only a couple upper sections of the Super Trail cross torched timber. Taking the Super Trail down was an excellent choice as the views are sweet!

The weather turned out sweet for mid June. We caught cool breezes throughout the day. One cloud shaded the harsh sun as we walked through the glory section with pine needles covering the trail.

A squirrel larger than a house cat nearly took me out dashing up the trail. Bellows Spring was pumping hardy! Gnats at the top set a world record for annoyance.

Took 100oz water & 64oz gateraid and drank it all

Fajitas at Macayos topped off a great day
