| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Several blow downs that look like they have been here for a while. No blazes for the first 1/4 mile or so, but the trail was easy to follow today. A short section of trail was narrow and sloped into the stream just after crossing the stream, could certainly use some reconstruction. No trail signs on the any of the hiking trails in the area. |

Lightly used trail, with one section that was tricky after a stream crossing. No snowmobiles on the summit snowmobile trails yet. Nice cleared views from each of the summits today. |
