| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Overall trails in great shape. Descending Red Ridge however, we got off the trail between the Red Ridge Connector, and a forest road. We were following faded orange blazes, and they rejoin the trail, but we were clearly off the trail for some time. By the looks of it, we weren't the only ones to do this. |

| Comments: |
Great little loop, for a day with low clouds. There were a few spots on the open ledges with running water, some of which was frozen. Easy enough to step around, but pay attention. Traction was not needed today. |
