| Water Crossing Notes: |
Used trail and all 3 crossings on way up. Went directly across and there may have been easier route with some exploring. First two involved a few slightly submerged rocks while the third crossing was much easier. |

| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Firewardens Tr. has several blowdowns and is quite grown in; but still very easy to follow for an abandoned trail. |

Congrats to Kali on Grid finish!! There are puddles on Twinway but I'd still bring extra for them. |

They were around but movement and couple dosings of deet kept them away. |

Towel and hat on North Twin Tr.(would've hauled them out if going back same way; hopefully someone else did). |

| Comments: |
Another nice hiking day. Trails all fine. Some standing water on Twinway between South Twin & Guyot and on North Twin Spur. Trails drier on the other side of Guyot. Firewardens Tr. was a nice soft descent at the end of a long day. Nice running into some posters from here and VFTT. |
