 | Comments: |
Trails were generally dry with one mud pit on the Orange section of the Klem-Mack Loop not far from the pond. Trails are in good condition. Still pretty green as far as the foliage goes, probably a week or two before peak. Saw plenty of people out enjoying the nice weather and great views. |
