|
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
only crossings on this route on Jewel - both with nice bridges |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
All in great shape, Caps ridge and Jewel had a few walk unders that were no problem but might pose more difficulty in winter |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Not sure I'd recommend Caps ridge as a dog friendly hike given the scrambling up the caps and the boulder scrambling above the cornice. We met one poor dog that was stuck on the first cap too afraid to go up and too afraid to go back down. |

| Bugs: |
Nothing bothersome today! |
