Comments
Comments: Third time up this route and I really like it. First peak for Shays 3rd round of the 52wav list. Trails were in great shape and we enjoyed the decent water levels for sure. The do not litter sign has been removed from the summit tree, it was a horrible eye sore and I'm glad it's gone. People who litter, don't read signs, they simply do not care.
