Looks like someone cut a bunch of trees in the middle of the trail as they came down. It appeared impassable but we were able to climb over/through them. I tried to pick up as my cut branches as I could and throw them off trail but it’s still a huge mess. |

| Comments: |
Walked to the end of caribou pond road took a right at the cairin, followed the arrows and cairins to the summit clearing and to the redington 4010 sign then the herd path marked with blue and pink surveryors tape to the canister on the back side of the tree. There was areas of snow after you get on the herd path. Did post hole a few feet in some places but it was intermittent. I found it very easy to navigate. |
