 | Comments: |
Excellent loop; over 1/2 of it with open exposure. Lots of puddles, mud, running water on trails but will probably be back to normal by this weekend. Over 250 count by caretakers today but quiet on account of late start. If you haven't hiked on this side before Cantilever Rock is worth checking out. One of those interesting features and only 2/10's of mile on spur off of Sunset Ridge Tr. |
