Big thanks to the RMC trail crew that was out, doing yeoman's work on the trail. Much appreciated, folks! There are freshly cut drainages, and drainage logs are nicely cross-hatched for solid traction. Strong work! |

It's a gem, hidden away up north. Trail was in fine shape -- not just in the area of today's maintenance, but overall, too. The view from Starr-King seemed to have grown in a little, although that might just be my recollection at fault. Some mud here and there, but nothing insurmountable.
Photos are on my blog. |
