It was later in the afternoon and I wanted to see if I could make to Ben by sunset. I wasn't sure how far I was going to make it before I hit the snow. It was nice to see the trails nice and dry for a majority of the trip. It really wasn't until I hit the Jct where the North Frok trail meet up at the base of Ben. The rest of the way it was pretty much a crap shot. I went shouth where the ridge was pretty clear of snow. As I got closer to the Peak I could see the shadow of a Goat watching over me. I really didn't expect it would be there when I reached the top, but to both our suprise it was. I startled the Goat as I rounded the last little bit to the Peak. I sat for an hour and watched a small heard below me. The sun started getting lower and I decided to get off the snowy ridges while I could still see. The last two hours were in the dark but it was nice and peaceful. Another awesome hike.
