 | Water Crossing Notes: |
The brook crossing near the beginning of Fletchers Cascade Trail was no problem, but you do want microspikes because the rocks have ice on them. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
One large pine tree across the trail up close to the cascades. More of a climb over, than a step over, it's a big tree.
Not far after the brook crossing there's a big leaner. Easy walk under, but a future climb over, another big one. |

 | Comments: |
May as well put your microspikes on as soon as you get out of the car. The parking lot is like a skating rink and a lot of ice on the trails, especially up near the cascades. |
