Another fantastic day on the Hermit.
Saw an Abert's Squirrel on the rim, the usual Pinyon Jays around Waldron Basin, and a raven drinking out of the Santa Maria Spring trough - after I chipped a hole in the ice to access the water.
Continued past the shelter for the first time - estimating .75 ml farther - to where I could see and hear Hermit Creek below, and see a tiny triangle of the river at Hermit Rapid.
Only saw three people all day - two guys hiking down while I was headed up below Santa Maria ... and then a solo female hiker, also descending, below the Dripping Spring turnoff.
Perfect hiking weather ... and I still have two more days off to hike! :D
