 | Comments: |
Very confusing finding the trail because of active logging. Went back to car and started again. Followed stream and eventually picked up on trail. Beautiful waterfalls and cascades. Went up Italian trail for the loop. 30-40 piles of moose poop on the black snout trail. Mt Shaw lived up to its 52wav. A lot of running water on the Mt. Shaw trail going down. Hike was in memory of my mother passing this wensday. RIP Mom ✌🻠|
