Saturday, 07/31/10 Green Mountain

Up/Down Gregory/Ranger

Took Sierra up Green, started at 7:17am and it was already starting to get pretty warm.  Allison dropped us off at the TH and she drove further up to hike Long Canyon, but Sierra could not be convinced that she was not following behind, so Sierra would continually stop to wait.  I ended up doing a lot of stopping, backtracking and encouraging.  Total time to the top was 53 minutes, a solid 10 of which was spent waiting/backtracking.  She was still slow on the descent as it warmed, 35 down.
