All doable. The lower stretches of the trail, closest to the rec path, was actually the worst in terms of getting the shoes wet. |

Went Lowes-King-Spur-Lowes. Probably would redo in reverse, as even though Lowes and Spur are steep, Lowes was much looser!
Both camps along the way were stunning, spring flowing nice and cold in between the two of them. Worth the stop.
10.5 miles with a bit over 4K gain, awesome day!
