There's a pretty gnarly sinkhole on the road starting at about 1 mile from the trailhead. It's on the creek side of the road, and is corraled off by a make-shift stick-&-flagging-tape crib.
When you get to the clearcut area nearest the trailhead, watch for it. OK for cars & trucks to get around now, but the mud on the side of the road might become mookey and slick with time, so I don't know what folks will have to deal with in weeks to come.
Trail in typical Boulder River trail condition; from great tread to boot-sucking mud - but a joy to hike, as always.
A brand new Boulder River Wilderness, Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie NF sign has been installed - but they mispelled "Snoqualmie." *
* Ha! Just joking.
