| Water Crossing Notes: |
There was one water crossing towards the top. Highly recommend to NOT cross this right now. It is a waterfall and there is rushing water running under the snow packed trail. I chose to turn around and not continue. The amount of postholing I had done on the way up, I did not want to risk falling through and being swept down under the snow... I suggest waiting for this the finish melting. |

| Dog-Related Notes: |
I brought my dog, it will be a great trail for dogs, this day was not one of them. I had him on his leash to help him through the trail as the snow got deeper. |

I can't wait to try this trail again!
Trail, in the beginning, was great, as I got further along the snow got deeper. Some places were waist high. The higher up, more dangerous. |
