|
 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
We were one of the first ones there today so easy for us parking in the little lot, but I'd say only about 6-8 cars can fit in the lot. Others must park along the road which was very very busy by the time we left around 11. Shouldn't be a big deal to park along the road but the later you get there the further away from the trail head you will be. |

 | Surface Conditions: |
Wet Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Significant |
|
 | Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Two water crossings early in the hike, but the water was low and it was pretty straightforward to rock hop over them. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trail seems well maintained. A single tree down about a mile into the hike but was easy to duck under even for a tall guy like myself. A few miles in you enter a riverbed and take that up for a while, and after the rain and storms last week there was plenty of mud and running water, so boots would be advisable for current conditions. |

 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Some cuties up there today |
|
 | Bugs: |
Started getting bad around 9-10 but not a black fly in sight. Just mosquitos and little gnats. Didn't need bug nets just some spray helped |
