| Comments: |
Road walk was brutal due to the mosquitoes. Otherwise, it's a scenic walk with the river, marsh, and cabins.
Diamond Peaks Trail had a few blowdowns, but was otherwise okay. Fairly dry other than the boggy part down low. Nice variety of wildflowers in bloom.
Heard from someone at a cabin that the trail sometimes closes due to falcons and could close again soon for that same reason.
Sunny afternoon with temperatures in the 70s. |
