 | Comments: |
Wet conditions the whole way and the continuing rain will keep the trail wet for a while! Boots will get wet and muddy! Some mud and running water on the Crawford path below Pierce, A number of water and mud puddles between Pierce and Eisenhower that will get your boots wet but strategically placed rocks will keep you mostly out of the worst of it. Hiked the day in the clouds with a few views opening up as we headed back from Eisenhower. Of course nice an sunny once we got back to the trailhead. There is a stack of logs and boards before the col; it looks like the bog bridges will finally be replaced. |
