 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Haystack Road is in great condition. Only a few good bumps around the bridge right before the trailhead. I was the first car to park roadside around 1130am, about a handful of cars left around 5pm |
|
 | Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
 | Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Used the herd path to the left to skip the two crossings. The third crossing was manageable, I went just to the right - wide steps and rock hops. It was flowing okay but not high |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Saw a couple crews out there doing maintenance, appreciated as always! Also seemed to be clearing a path next to the herd path to the left. There were a couple wide birches down but nothing wild or impeding. Trail was decently wet in spots but there were a couple brief downpours while I was out |

An okay amount of blackflies when it wasn't raining |

I rather enjoyed this hike! I was in the clouds at the top but I did south twin recently so I could imagine the view :) Good trail conditions generally, especially early, fairly smooth and level. The trail was wet, the mud wasn't as bad as I've seen lately but this was another muddy wet hike. It did rain a bit while I was out there but the rocks were not too too slippery; I generally took my time on this hike anyway. Only a few easy step over blowdowns. Those giving the trail love were a friendly group and working hard! |
