It's still coming down, too.  Rain predicted for pretty much the entire
week.

I feel sorry for all the thru-hikers out there.  Not so much because
they have to walk in the rain (hey, at least they're not stuck in an
office!), but because as a Northwest native I'm proud of my Cascade
mountains and it's just tragic when people walk through them and see
nothing but fog.  We have some of the best scenery of the whole trail up
here, damn it, but no one ever believes me.  <grin>
