| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trails overall in good shape.One of the signs is missing a corner at intersection of EPT and WRT.Willey Range Trail has a walk under blowdown before the ladders. A few of steps on ladders are missing or rotten. Between Mt Willey and Mt Field could really use a brushing as it is quite overgrown. There are two blowdowns #1 1/4 mi #2 1/8 before Field. I removed a blowdown on Avalon Trail. 1 small stepover remains
