Comments
Comments: Blueberry Mtn Trail (northern end)

Trail starts on forest service roads (logging) and then becomes a trail. There were lots of streams to cross and semi frozen wet spots. We barefooted to about 2000 feet and then the ice bulges started so we put on Micro's which were fine. More snow up high as well. People have come in from the South but we were the only tracks from North. Lots of old stone walls and evidence of the old homesteads that were up here. Great day out with Karen.
