Comments
Comments: Trails were mostly dry and in good shape. Did a short bushwhack from the northern hairpin turn on Green to Red (comes out just above the Red Trail viewpoint) to see how close they actually are at that elevation; answer is pretty close.
Though I didn't note an abundance along the trails, there were signs of ripe low bush blueberries.
