Couple step-overs, but overall the trail is in excellent shape! One "step through" just above the higher junction with the Blueberry Ledge Cutoff. Looks like the top half of a tree came down on the trail. Still easy to get through. |

None in the cool early morning, but by 11am or so the blackflies were swarming - only annoying if you stopped moving. Nothing biting. |

| Comments: |
Great day out for my first tractionless hike of the spring! Lots of sun down low, but cloudy on top. Ledges were dry. Saw a lot of people on this trail today - counted 28. And two moose on the way to the trailhead. Excellent day all around! |
