 | Comments: |
If I did this again I would skip Laughing Lion. Tough to follow till about 3/4 of a mile, leaf piles on the downward slope at the beginning, many blowdowns although you can get over or around them. Royce trail had mud and water on the trail. East Royce trail was very well maintained. |
