|
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
easy. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
2 blowdowns. One on Welch ascent (to the R on the loop) within the first 3/4 mile large tree will need a chainsaw or lots of ax work; can step over with mild difficulty. Second about 1/2 mile or so from the bottom of the Dickey descent; small saw work would take care of it and it's an easy walk around. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Steep sections here and there but a dog used to hiking will be fine. Espen had a happy day, with even a few bonus water holes. |
|
| Bugs: |
none. |
|
| Lost and Found: |
Size L black cotton Hanes "hoodie" sweatshirt with white lettering "Don't treat on Me" with a serpent logo found just beyond the Welch overlooks. I hung it on the parking fee sign. |

| Comments: |
Only one in the lot (of course it was very early) both when I left and when I returned. Great small hike. Some color starting to develop in the foliage. |
