Only put 1 foot completely in on the way up and the inside was dry, so kept going. Both feet were in and soaked on the way back. Water was high, but not scary. Didn't look around for a better crossing. |

A blowdown or two have been removed which was nice. Smattering of limbs to duck under. In pretty good shape. |

 | Comments: |
Going up wasn't terrible considering I got a 9:30ish start. Lots of snow still, but multiple holes of running water to go around or through. You'll slide off the trail if you step too far in either direction. Monorail is starting to rear its ugly head in a couple of places. Fairly easy track to follow though someone definitely missed the trail above the cabin a couple times. Coming down was MUCH slushier. Probably going to be a nightmare in the next few days. Snowshoes car to car were helpful today. |
