Maybe ~6 blow downs across trails. All were easy to step over or duck under. One part way down Carter dome trail from trail junction is a bit high with lots of sharp stick ends. Much further down on 19mb a big birth branches and all is across trail. But easy to get over/thru |

 | Comments: |
This route was a nice way to get all 3 carters, and the views of mt height. The cut off from the doge camp rd was a bit hard to find as it is not labeled, but it is right where map shows it to be and a very well worn trail. The trails are in great condition, quite dry with only a few easily avoidable mud spots. I went up Height first on way to Carter dome, then by passed it on way back. Mt height is a steep climb and some rough trail. Nothing hard, just a trail I would rather go up than down. |
