| Bugs: |
Variable. Loaded up on Ben's 100%, double shot. Annoying for the first 300 vertical feet. Non-existent from there to the summit of Mt. BFs became pesky on top of Mt. Faraway, but were not biting, just swarming. Must have been guys out drinking... Pesky and swarming on the way down. Occasional Mosquito. |

| Comments: |
Took the entire loop, 9.5 miles. Top portion of the trail, extremely gentle with hardly any rocks. Grassy. Quite leisurely. Very easy pitch on that side, but longer. Pretty much nobody on that side, made for a relaxing end of the day. |
