 | Comments: |
Very busy day on the trails yet again. Whereas this trail was becoming a conga line on weekends in recent years, now in the COVID era of big crowds and varied start times, it is now a bi-directional conga line for a good portion of the day. The small summit is also a bit tight.
Trails were generally dry with some minor mud in the usual places. Ski trail grass is pretty high, but the gravel access road is a good alternative. Lots of wildflowers in bloom and still some wild strawberries remaining. |
