| Water Crossing Notes: |
Water crossing on Baldface Circle Trail was a little high today, feet got pretty wet. However, wet feet did not matter much as the rest of the trail pretty wet too. Definitely spring :) |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
A number of blowdowns that were easy to navigate on Baldface Circle Trail. Blowdowns on Meader Ridge Trail were plentiful and some were a challenge to navigate around. I did notice that someone has been out there doing some trail maintenance so I am sure the hard ones to navigate will be gone soon. A couple on Mt. Meader Trail but those were easy to navigate. |

| Dog-Related Notes: |
Saw nobody (human or animal) until Mount Meader. Saw 1 dog on that trail. |
|
| Bugs: |
Not too bad on the hike. They were hungry at the parking lot though |

| Comments: |
Hit 2 of the 52WAV hikes today with Eagle Crag and Meader. Did a loop of it by going up Baldface Circle Trail (the northern side of the trail) and over to Meader via Meader Ridge Trail. I saw nobody until Meader Mountain. Trails were a little challenging because of blowdowns and wet/muddy spots but that's what spring hiking is all about. Getting a little dirty :) Happy Hiking All! |
