| Comments: |
Took By-pass up to avoid the first 2 crossings; on return decided to make all 3 crossings. Poles very helpful on crossings. From morning to afternoon water depth receeded quite a bit. Quite a few mud pits on all trails but were easily avoided. Summit of So. Twin became quite crowded during the 2 hrs we spent on the summit |
