Comments
Comments: Ran this loop. Mud was the name of the game. Mildly muddy on the way up to North Twin. Lots of mud and standing water on the ridge. Descent from Zeacliff was wet. Lend a Hand, more mud and standing water. The Firewarden's Trail was in the best shape. Dry or damp most of the way with a few wet/muddy patched.
