It came as a lucky complement that, while I was here a year ago<\/a>, Billy Goat Trail A was closed from flooding but B was open. This time, the B part was closed for trail damage, but A was open.<\/p>\n

Parking was tight for the day, many cars had resorted to (possibly illegal) roadside parking. But luck was on our side again as we arrived at the lot just as another car was leaving. 😁<\/p>\n
