| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
"Mud-Significant" isn't that big a deal. You can't really avoid it without courting trail erosion, but while it's muddy, it's neither deep nor long nor plentiful, or anything. Don't sweat it. There's a couple wet/muddy sections that you can't avoid, but that's about all. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Quite a few doggies having the time of their lives. Happily wagging tails in abundance. All was good on that front. |
|
| Bugs: |
Nothing of significance. (Thinking back, not even mosquitos.) |

| Comments: |
It was an epic day. Sunny, relatively cool, with a nice breeze... really, apart from a winning lottery ticket, who would want anything else? There was a little haze which clipped the view somewhat, but still, you could see a lot from the summit. Trails are in fantastic shape, it's a quick jaunt from the parking lot to the summit, so what are you waiting for?
