Waterbars in need of digging. A couple of stepover blowdowns, as well as a series of blowdowns just before the summit with a herd path around them. There was another blowdown just below that with a herd path that we took care of (cut out the blowdown and brushed in the herd path). |

 | Comments: |
Trail was generally dry with some minor mud above the snowmobile corridor. Footing is still generally good, though a little loose below the old firewarden's cabin.
Foliage is starting to turn, though it is still primarily green down low. Nice pre-peak colors visible from the summit.
Nice early afternoon weather with temperatures in the 50s to low 60s and clearing skies. Saw about a dozen total hikers.
Support liberty. |
