June 28, 2020. Backpacking 9 peaks day 2. From High Spring Meadow to the 5 eastern peaks and down Momyer. Going down Momyer Trail was horrible: calling it overgrown is an extreme understatement. The trail nearly disappears in some places and you have to hold your arms above your head to squeeze through the shoulder height bushes. Wear long sleeves or you will be scratched to pieces. I will never hike Momyer again. Miserable.
