 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Lot fits about 4 cars and then another 5 or so cars can fit on the road right before the lot. I'm not sure how legal it is to park on this road but haven't seen any issues.

|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
3 or 4 small water crossings at the beginning that were all about a foot deep. One has unsecured tree branches as the bridge. Beware that these turn into snow bridges in winter and might not be easily visible. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trail is in good shape but was pretty wet in some areas with some mud that was mostly avoidable. I went up with the other USFS maintainer for this trail to do a late fall cleanup. Cleared out all the water bars and cleared all the blowdowns. There are still a few leaners throughout the trail that are high up and out of reach but have potential to come down. There is a bog bridge on the upper part of the trail that's falling apart and needs replacement but we did add a log to it for some extra support.
