Full Route here in details, above was the section for Sunday. Friday: Wild River Road with Shelburne Tr to Highwater Tr as oab, to Basin Tr to Blue Brook Connector to Blue Brook Tentsite Spur. Saturday: Black Angel Tr to Basin Rim Tr to Meader Ridge Tr w/Meader View Spur to Eagle Link to Wild River Tr w/Spruce Brook Tentsite Spur to Black Angel Tr. Sunday: Blue Brook Connector to Basin Tr to Basin Rim Tr to Royce Tr to Burnt Mill Brook Tr. Most trails were in good shape and dry conditions prior to the rain on Saturday night. Was a wet trip across West Royce but rock was still mostly dry. All trails are very easy to follow by redline standards. Most useful info is on river crossings |
