 | Comments: |
The trail from the north trailhead up to the summit spur is much more traveled than the southern section; and it shows. The north section has a clean treadway where the south has leaves and other debris. That said, the entire trail is very well blazed and shows the efforts of a dedicated trail maintainer. The lower part was pretty muddy in sections but was still easily navigated by staying to the sides. Once pass this section it's easy snowmobile and road walking out to the trailhead. |
