There are several blow downs on the trail which were duck under, swing under, or straddle over. One tree was down in the pathway but a by-pass permits easy passage. |

Saw no dogs today. The steep slippery surfaces may challenge some dogs. |

| Bugs: |
A few flying bugs that were not bothersome. |

| Lost and Found: |
Unfortunately there were some trash left on or by the trail. Cigars and cigarette butts left on East Peak ledges. I brought out a cigarette lighter that had been discarded on the trail and tossed the used cigars in to the brush where I hope they will decompose. |
