7 blowdowns across the trail on the Twinway all within 0.1 mile after leaving Galehead Hut; noticed all the waterbars on the Twinway up to South Twin were cleaned out which helped dry out the trail after last nights rain - thank you! Also, on the Gale River Trail, one large blowdown across the trail .25 mile from the Garfield Ridge Trail junction. |

 | Comments: |
Out and back to North Twin from Gale River Trail. Everyone coming up the North Twin Trail said they crossed the 3rd water crossing by wading, with the water coming up only to their calves. Small areas of snow on the North Twin Spur, microspikes not needed. |
