 | Water Crossing Notes: |
The low crossing was an easy rock hop, albeit over wet rocks. Higher up around ~ mile 2.5 the drainages and seeps make for a little splashing but not a big problem. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
In good shape :) |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Darby rates this trail two paws up for dogs. A little talus to navigate once you break out from the trees up high, but its a short span and flat with well-placed rocks. |
|
 | Bugs: |
Yes. Black flies nibbling at all elevations, we kept up the pace and mostly evaded them but during stops they got annoying. Even with some breeze, the summit itself has swarms of club horned sawfly, they look scary but are harmless. |

 | Comments: |
Edmands Path to the loop trail and summit, out and back. The canine and I reported for duty today as the new Edmands Path adopters. Other than sticks and branches at lower elevations (easily cleared), the trail is in great shape. Stream flows were nominal today so the crossing was no big deal. There are both wet/moist and muddy sections, some would say greasy. Standard stuff. A great day to get up there before the Friday precip. |
