While on the summit I saw only two or three birds (swallows), no foxes, no coyotes,
no marmots, no prairie dogs, no deer, no elk, no sheep, no moose, no cattle, no frogs,
no snakes, no spiders, no alligators (but I saw two gaiters), and no people (except
me). But I was pestered to distraction by about twenty flies. They were awful!
