Went up with the other maintainer of this trail and we removed the large blowdown right at the beginning of the trail (thanks for posting about that so we knew about it beforehand), cut back a few branches and roots that were on the trail and cleaned out all the waterbars. A few wet spots including an area just before the summit that is always muddy.
