 | Comments: |
As noted above, on the way up to Willey the trail has seen lots of water damage. Many log steps strewn along the trail. It’s easy enough to pick your way through but sad to see. I hadn’t been up this way in a few years and was reminded of the impressive and venerable series of wooden ladders. Great trail engineering work, also old and worn. |
