Gale Brook Trail
Great trail & a great day for it. Very uncrowded. Stable monorail starting around 3000 feet, but immediately adjacent to the monorail there were 3-foot postholes. Thankfully trail was well-travelled enough that we only postholes once in the 10.5 miles. Lots of bird activity in the lower 2/3 or so. Great day. |
