Rainbow Springs-Wayah Bald

Poured for the climb up to Wallace Gap. Rain faded to mist and drizzle for the trip down Rainbow Springs road, during which I broke a rear spoke and had an unrelated puncture. Also saw a huge wild hog midway down, in the woods. Decided to climb Wayah Bald and it was uneventful on the way up but started to drizzle and then changed to rain while I was dawdling at the top. It was 59 degrees at this point and as I descended it began to pour, and continued till I got midway down from Wayah gap on the paved road. Was very glad to see the valley and upper sixties.
