| Comments: |
water levels were high on the ride north so waumbek needed a visit. running water and mud on lower section of the road. the section through the hardwoods quite muddy in spots. once into the conifers trail was drier to starr king..usual muddy spots over to waumbek. enjoyed the 2 viewpoints nd a nice breeze on the summits,,quite steamy on descent heading down through the hardwoods..good day out |
