Great Gulf: some muddy sections, no big deal
Madison Gulf: the headwall was the best part! very little surface water 48 hours after the rain. A few difficult sections but my 6' frame handled it well. At the top I met a hiker bailing on a Presi traverse. I tried to steer him toward the Osgood Trail but he was determined to descend Madison Gulf.
Parapet: some redlining going on here. Same length as the headwall but seemed so much longer. Don't ever need to do it again.
Osgood: All's good.

Much more like September than August. Cool and quite windy on every knoll on the ridge.
