 | Water Crossing Notes: |
The crossing on the Mt Coe trail below the slide are 'interesting'. Upper portion of the Marston Trail is in a stream bed. Many slippery spots.
Most of the Coe slide was a water crossing. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Below the lower Mt Coe intersection the Marston Trail has has a significant (and really nice) re-route. From the upper Mt Coe intersection to just below North Brother, it's a mess. I happened across the guy who directs trail maintenance for Baxter. He told me that they are not doing maintenance on the upper section as it is scheduled for a re-route, but that work was delayed by their current work re-routing the Abol Trail. Some walk-over blowdowns on the Mt Coe trail between S Brother and the Marston intersection |

 | Dog-Related Notes: |
None seen. This is probably not a dog-friendly route. |

Lost my purple Buff on the way back from Fort. Email me if you find it please. |
