| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
A ways down from Liberty toward Flume there was an 8-ft blowdown across the trail. On the way back from flume, I limbed it with a foldup saw and managed to swing the log to the side of the trail. Maybe someone with muscle will tip it into the woods. |

Not really noticeable. Figured I'd best spray up; did so at the bridge. |

| Comments: |
Saw one fellow on the way up, who was going up Flume Slide. Then saw maybe 15-20 on the down-up over to Flume, who had come up Osseo Tr to Flume first. Cloud cover at Liberty. At Flume, clouds were lifting, got views to the south, finally at Liberty, and from Garfield eastward. Lincoln & Lafayette stayed in cloud. Cool day for July, but nice to be out there. |
