Well crawford path was like a concrete highway from that rain, we took the left over the bridge on the connector and to our surprise there were trails going up the cliff trail. Well only about 10 feet in did we see them stop and clearly someone just went to the bathroom and turned around. So more breaking trail for the day. The pool was covered in snow, so not too much sight here. after this is where the elevation starts. There were some bare geound around here which was shocking. Then we got to a Massive tree across the trail with its roots in the way. Not sure how you can clean this one up but definitely a chainsaw will help. We went up and over this and continued on the sideways walk all the way to the cluff. The view was great and we headed back down trying not to slip off the edges of the trail from the soft snow underneather the hard crust. |
