 | Comments: |
As noted, this is trail in name only despite its importance in high water. The trail is washed out in numerous locations along the river bank and some sections undermined before dispaearing. The banks have been overtopped in area leading to gravel deposits that look like a trail bed that inevitably peter out. It requires off trail navigation skills. |
