Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Several small brooks. Only one was more than a one-step hop. That one required a little bit of searching to find a good way across, but I crossed it both going up and down without getting my feet wet. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: About half of the trail had running water in it, but much less than what I saw yesterday. Difficult to keep boots dry, but the tops of my boots were never wet. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Saw two on the trail. Don't think they'd have any difficulties. 
Bugs
Bugs: Nada. 
Lost and Found
Lost and Found: Nope. 
 
Comments
Comments: Some parts of the trail were wet and had running water in them, but nowhere near as much as on Doublehead yesterday. Restricted views from the cabin and the summit. Probably in a day or two the trail will be back to normal.
