| Comments: |
The original plan was to go to Hale but Tonya wasn't feeling well so we went up to the birch glade and turned around. Foliage is popping right now in the area. Trails were wet from yesterday's rain and we had a few small mud pits to deal with. A fair amount of leaves have now fallen making for some tricky footing here and there. Looking forward to re-visiting the rest of the Fire Warden's Trail in the near future. |
