Comments
Comments: Gathering a redline for Bria, a good pretty walk. Started on north end by walking up the granite stairway and enjoyed walking along the west edge of Profile Lake and nice view up Eagle Cliff Eaglet. Walking along the edge of the headwaters of the Pemi River, the rocky and ledgy stream bed is beautiful fun. Big view of Cannon Cliff above over adjacent swampy area. Interesting walking through campground seeing how others camp. Basin crowed with people doing their best to try to fall into the river above and below the attractive natural formation. People even were at Baby Flume. Nice to have trail today mostly to ourselves past the popular public areas. Trail needs brushing between the north end and Lafayette Place. Blazes are missing on the south end. Fun outing.
