|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
All of the small blowdowns have been removed. One large tree remains that will need a chainsaw. Between the true summit and the end of the trail there's a large leaner, but it's high and firmly wedged and isn't moving for a while. Plenty of room to walk under. I also brushed in a couple unnecessary herd paths. |

 | Comments: |
Middle Mtn. Trail is ready for business aside from the chainsaw blowdown mentioned above. I enjoy this trail, especially the grassy ridge walk.
Conditions in the morning were dry but the rain began around 1 pm and steadily increased. Fortunately, I had finished up everything I needed to do by then. |
