I counted 6 blowdowns, including the ones near the summit, that seem to have been there for a while. Major herd paths around those, and remainder are step overs. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Cody had a blast, must have hiked/run twice the distance we did. So much water for drinking or just lounging in, if desired. Feeder streams at lower elevation, plus one at higher elevation was wonderful for a thirsty pup, or just dunking to cool off. |

too much wind, thankfully |

 | Comments: |
Lots of mud and water on trail at lower elevations; like walking up a stream in sections. Thankfully, the trail improved at higher elevations. Much more climbing than I remembered, was great. Bumped into the other group at the summit, great meeting them; redliners in the party. Fantastic Views!!! |
