| Water Crossing Notes: |
Little river had relatively high CFS so you had to go up or down river to find decent places to cross. probably better now that its been a few days since the storm last week. On the way back crossed only once and stayed on the east side the rest of the way past fire wardens trail to hale. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
mostly in good shape except blow downs on the spur trail and one that was a low bridge with branch stubs sticking out that you can see well so be careful - I brained my self on the way out to S Twin on this - its juct before the bottom of the col going down from N Twin |

| Comments: |
Finally a reasonable temperature day - hot but not too bad. very muddy on the spur trail as you approach S Twin. Again watch out for the blow down at the bottom of the col close to N Twin that you go under - stubs sticking out you cant see well. |
