One good thing about HAZ is that you can look at other triplogs and get some hike ideas. I saw that @johnlp and @trekkin_gecko did this one the other day so I thought that I'd give it a shot. Thanks for the hike idea - I doubt if I would have ever come up with this one on my own!

FR 27 seemed to be a bit more eroded in a couple of places as compared to the last time that I did the hike, but Jaws was about the same.

There was some cloud cover most of the way up FR 27, but it was mostly sunny thereafter. For the most part there wasn't much wind, so it was a bit warm on the way back.
