A fun loop of Cannon from the Lafayette campground, up to the summit and then down to the tram lot before following the Pemi trail and bike path back to the campground.
The trails are pretty wet after recent rain with a decent amount of standing water in places. The lower section of Lonesome Lake Trail and lower section of KRT near the tram lot are even more eroded than normal. So much sand has moved recently that sections are as flat and fast as a well packed winter trail. It's kind of weird to see.
Overall things are in good shape given the recent rain. |
