 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Only 3 or 4 blowdowns, but one of the them is a solid 15 incher. Flicked a bunch of branches off trail and unclogged some drainages. I propped up a trail/arrow sign whose tree had been knocked down in the recent storm presumably. Upon my return it was gone. |

 | Comments: |
No snow at all. A few ice patches on the upper portions, easy to avoid although I did put spikes on for about 100 feet coming down. Spring conditions.
Lime kilns are cool and a must see if doing this trail. |
