Well the rough ride out to the trailhead. But great day. It was warm and i made my way up and through the woods. It was dry closer to the bottom. I hit the mascot pond spur trail and got a nice view. I then continured on. I noticed the trail got very wet and it looked like either water bars are in need or repair. No blowdown wasn't able to be hopped over but 1-2 needs an axe. I made it to the ledges and it was great. Then continued on and saw a little snow off and then on the trail. I took about 4 steps in it, guaranteed those very small patches are gone by now. I made it to the top and wanted to head over and hit the centennial trail for next time. Made my way back down and out. Great day. |
