 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Two water crossings on Cascade Brook are v high at the moment. My dog is a pretty seasoned hiker but struggled with the first bc the rock spacing was pretty far and he's not a fan of swimming. Manageable for humans to cross if you are comfortable jumping 3-4 ft gaps or taking off shoes to wade through. |

A few blowdowns but easy to manage |
|

 | Comments: |
Overall trail in good condition and easy to manage other than the water crossings. Monorail present for much of the Cascade Brook trail but very manageable. A bit of potholing at the top near lonesome lake. Trail down to Lafayette campground has slippery ice but manageable without spikes, and all snow is gone below the zig zag in the trail. |
