 | Comments: |
I always enjoy the loop. Mt Kineo Trail north of junction with Donkey Hill cutoff is always tough across the beaver dam (and it's not on this circuit), however, I always like to check it out - it seems to me that the water level has gone up - perhaps the beavers have actually raised the water a bit and the crossing just to get to the beaver dam looked more muddy/submerged than usual. |
