|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
The trail has been well maintained and is easy to follow. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
This is an easy trail for fido, a good beginning trail as there are no ledges and it is not steep.
Note, however, that today we saw a bear cup scampering off from the trail. If Lauky had been running free as 9 out of 10 dogs do he would have chased the cub and might have been killed by the mother. Just some food for thought. |
|
 | Bugs: |
A few mosquitoes at the trailhead, but nothing requiring bug spray. Also a few flies and gnats on the summit of Star King. |
|
 | Lost and Found: |

 | Comments: |
There is a fair bit of mud between the summits but it can be fairly easily bypassed. This trail is never steep and is a good beginner trail. |
