| Comments: |
No particular issues on the trails and this area will get a lot of rehab soon. Spotted the last strip of ice of the season mid-trail on north side of Willey, hiding under some mud. Met just three other hikers. Lower down, nice hydrangeas blooming along lower Avalon and A-Z. Pearl and Beecher Cascades were impressive. |
