Recommended Equipment:  
Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Many small non-problematic crossings on Pine Bend. Many small easy crossings on Sabbaday Falls, with a few more that required some care. Boots were not submerged. Some difficulty in places finding the trail as it braided through and across the many stream channels. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: A large beech down across Sabbaday Falls trail, about 1/3 of the way in. New, still green leaves, no herd path formed yet but will definitely happen. A few other lesser deadfalls farther up. On both Pine Bend and Sabbaday, some herd paths establishing to bypass the more aggressive rock-climb areas. I must admit to having taken a few myself, as this old body did not wish to risk injury. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: One good boy, small black sort, who just wanted to get on with the trail climb.  
Bugs
Bugs: summits were black fly and mosquito intense. I didn't linger. Lower down, much less of an issue. Never deployed the bug net, but used copious spray.

Comments
Comments: Tougher than I had expected. Found myself wondering if the slide route might have been the better choice - plus a view as reward. Definitely glad I went up PB and down SF. Lost the trail and did a sketchy crossing of the river twice in the wrong place looking for it. Beautiful stroll along the stream for miles, and wow - Sabbaday Falls at the end - spectacular.
