| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Looked like the same crew had been here recently that was on Elmore 2 weeks ago as there were many deeply carved out water drainages. Certainly helping as the trails were fairly dry despite earlier showers. Many broken planks on beginning section of Stowe Pinnacle Tr.. Many unnecessary herd paths. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Didn't see the two local dogs but hikers talked to at end said they met them on their way down. Plentiful water ops. |

None today with the cooler temps and strong winds. |

| Comments: |
After work hike checking out the two trails. All in good condition although extra wide on account of heavy usage. Wind was "knock you over" strength at the summit. Downward views on a cloudy day. Nice chatting with Autumn & Stephen; hopefully see some reports from them in the future. Usually busy trails but only 5 seen today. |
