 | Comments: |
Good day for a hike with warm weather and a bit of sun at the top to open up the views. Snow is gone from the trail except for short patch right at start of trail head. Stretches of the trail had running water - a stretch about 50 yards long right near trailhead and a few other stretches higher up - heading up to the view ledges and above the ledges. There is a lot of running water on the view ledges making them very slippery so watch your step when crossing. Met several people that went as far as Middle Moat and they indicated trail basically snow free. |
