|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Many small non-problematic crossings on Pine Bend. Many small easy crossings on Sabbaday Falls, with a few more that required some care. Boots were not submerged. Some difficulty in places finding the trail as it braided through and across the many stream channels. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
A large beech down across Sabbaday Falls trail, about 1/3 of the way in. New, still green leaves, no herd path formed yet but will definitely happen. A few other lesser deadfalls farther up. On both Pine Bend and Sabbaday, some herd paths establishing to bypass the more aggressive rock-climb areas. I must admit to having taken a few myself, as this old body did not wish to risk injury. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
One good boy, small black sort, who just wanted to get on with the trail climb. |
|
 | Bugs: |
summits were black fly and mosquito intense. I didn't linger. Lower down, much less of an issue. Never deployed the bug net, but used copious spray. |

 | Comments: |
Tougher than I had expected. Found myself wondering if the slide route might have been the better choice - plus a view as reward. Definitely glad I went up PB and down SF. Lost the trail and did a sketchy crossing of the river twice in the wrong place looking for it. Beautiful stroll along the stream for miles, and wow - Sabbaday Falls at the end - spectacular. |
