Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Only 2 of note were coming down Carter Dome Trail. Not an issue as long as you are willing to step in ankle deep water here and there. We had trail runners which dried quickly so no worries.

Comments
Comments: Up Imp trail (through Camp Dodge via the logging rd) Wet/muddy trail most of the way...especially muddy from Middle Carter to Zeta Pass. Planned to loop Carter Dome/Mt. Hight with a break on Hight before heading down but was pretty socked in at Carter Dome and the black flies were not conducive to extended breaks so skipped Hight. 19 Mile Brook is running impressively at the moment making for a nice backdrop on the final slog out on 19Mb trail.
