With Willow from north side, figuring less people on the path. Didn't see anyone at the top until I was about to leave. W started barking and bouncing and disappeared, came back, ran toward me, turned around, raced to the summit cairn, rather agitated. What could it be? A very large, expressionless man who did not react - just stopped, stood like a statue. W needed a friendly "come here pooch". Without that she was scared - perhaps a 'beast' that looked like a person.
Great colors, strong SSE wind at the top. Was wearing a singlet, the temp above 70F today. Nice end to the first half of October.
On the way to Great Hill
