Perfect weather day hike with AK. We had some good clean fun getting off-trail and doing some light scrambling to get back on. Also had a rockfall scare (near Bandera split walking on trail), as we heard some shouts of "ROCK! ROCK!" from above and saw a microwave-sized boulder sweep by us just a few feet away. Snow was present 70% up from Mason Lake, but melting away rapidly for some added uncertainty to your steps. Ira Springs parking lot was full, but we parked at the less busy Tinkham TH for some extra mileage. Great day!
