Welch-Dickey Loop 10/14/11

[Mountain49]

Brook easily crossed. Trail to Welch a little muddy and wet in places but easily gotten around. Trail well marked except when ascending one of the steepest slabs,it wasn't clear whether to go to left or right.

Views from summits beautiful. Alernating sun and clouds. Didn't rain until I finished hike at 1:30. Then heavy rain for 5 to 10 minutes

Brought raingear, never needed. Poles helpful.
