 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Cranberry Meadow Pond has two large trees down that will need a chainsaw. Blazing for Summit Loop Trail needs improvement. The top of Raymond Trail is easy to miss when descending; the trail name is painted on a ledge but there is no sign. |

 | Comments: |
Managed to avoid most of the weekend crowds on this peak by using Raymond Trail as the primary route.
Looked like it had rained overnight in this area as the hike started out a bit wet but the talus scrambles and the upper ledges were dry.
Hot hot and more hot. Looking forward to October air. |
