Trail Maintenance Notes: Many blowdowns on Osceola trail, worse toward the East Osceola summit and between peaks. Most could be stepped over or ducked under, but there was one I had to crawl under on all fours after removing my pack. Some areas of significant mud, moreso on Greeley Ponds Trail. Sank up to my ankle at one point.

Comments
Comments: Trails were in rough shape after the storm, but doable. Did the hike without microspikes but wished I had them on the descent, as more ice formed as the day went on.
