 | Comments: |
Hiked Monday 5/17 and returned 5/18 after camping out off trail. Moriah Brook has little snow, a few mud pit areas and has seen little apparent use. My favorite route to Mt Moriah, the gorge section and the cascade section are two Wild River Wilderness gems. Moose sighting near the gorge. |
