 | Comments: |
Beautiful trails. The lightly traveled trails are always a pleasure. Lots of work going on on Lowe's path; a crew was moving big rocks near the log cabin, and the trail has been brushed lately. Had lots of fun in the boulders in King Ravine, and Chemin was a fun climb. Found tadpoles in Star Lake. |
