Comments
Comments: Ascent was via the Eyebrow Trail and Old Speck Trail. For the descent, the Old Speck Trail was followed all the way back to the trailhead. The total round-trip distance for this route was 7.7 miles.



Overall, the entire route was in pretty good shape. There were no blowdowns. As one would expect, there were a few muddy spots, and occasional stretches of slippery rock.
