Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: The trail was pretty muddy in some sections but that was expected. There were a few smaller blowdowns that were easily removed but there was one big one about 0.25 miles north of the final water crossing that completely blocks the trail. Removed some of the limbs so that it was easier to crawl under but it will take a bit of work to remove the entire thing.
