Well, it rained on us EVERY day (usually hard for a couple of hours, with
the added benefit of hail several times) on our trek last year in late
July, including a super gully washer on our final night in base camp (we
thanked God we weren't on the trail that night). If that doesn't keep the
fire down, I don't know what will <g>! The decision to be made--would you
rather have high fire danger, or hike in a rainforest akin to the Pacific
Northwest. There doesn't seem to be much middle ground <g>! My suggestion
is to buy raingear like it was monsoon season, and then be pleasantly
surprised if you only have to take it out once per day...... YIS. Mike

Please respond to

I wonder if the fire danger is ever going to be low again?
