Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: First crossing of the inlet is hoppable. The 2 big crossings i got my feet wet (wearing wp runners) which wasn't a surprise, but the temps and minimal snow meant i wasn't too concerned. They'll be rock hoppable very soon. Water wasn't particularly high.  
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Usual amount of blowdowns on the bushwhacks (Brutus in particular) and the usual mud and water. Nothing new or crazy.

Comments
Comments: No snow under 3600' and above that was a pretty solid (albeit narrow) monorail still. Went up the slide and down Brutus with no issue. The rest of the trail is surprisingly dry and in good shape. The crossings weren't hard, but a number of the rocks are still submerged, so i did end up with a wet right foot. Wore my runners today.
