Had a great day in the blast zone, again! Went up South Coldwater Ridge on trails #230A and #230, to meet the Boundary Trail at the saddle above Saint Helens Lake. That's always a special place. Then wandered past the Rock Arch and down towards Spirit Lake and Harry's Ridge. Closed the loop by traveling through the tourist-infested stretch to JRO, and then in solitude again on the final stretch down to The Hummocks.
