Trails in great shape, except for that one root that I tripped on, which sent me flying. Banged up my shin. Looks quite rugged :) |

| Dog-Related Notes: |
South Slide would be difficult for some dogs. That being said, I met a nice couple who took their dog up the North Slide and down the South Slide. They needed to use some rope in a couple spots on the North Slide, but still, that is one amazing dog!! |

Great loop on an amazing day. As previously mentioned, trails were in great shape and dry. The South Slide was a blast, as usual. I forgot how easy it is to descend Scaur Ridge, although descending the slabs on Pine Bend Brook is always a bit of a challenge. Only saw 4 people on the trails, excluding Livermore in the afternoon. Trail signage was very visible with clear directions, although I did not see the sign for Kate Sleeper Trail while on the South Slide. That may have been because I was on the left side of the slide at the time, whereas the Kate Sleeper Trail sign is on the right. Hike took 5 1/2 hours. I'll take it for being a 62 year old geezer with bad knees. |
