Date of Hike
Date of Hike: Saturday, October 22, 2022
Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: Large, flat dirt lot can hold about 16 vehicles. Overflow parking is not really an option since the road is very narrow and without a shoulder. There were 4 cars @ 9:50am and 15 @ 2:30pm. 
Surface Conditions
Surface Conditions: Dry Trail, Wet Trail 
Recommended Equipment
Recommended Equipment:  
Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: About half a dozen crossings. All were easily rock hoppable. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Overall it was in great shape but was sometimes a little difficult to find in some areas, mainly due to the leaf cover but also due to lack of markings. There's a large 12+" diameter evergreen tree @ ~2350' that completely blocks the trail. Someone had recently removed lots of the smaller branches but a bypass trail to the right has formed. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes:  
Bugs
Bugs: Surprisingly there were lots of tiny black swarming insects that were only visible in direct sunlight. They did not attack or bite and were not a problem.
