The road to the trail head is in excellent condition. A trail crew was brushing and logging out the trail. Trail is in good shape. Good views at the top. I was impressed, this was my first trip up Col. Bob.

Some recent campers left a lot of trash behind and used one of the tarns as a toilet bowl.

Campbell Tree grove campground is a good place to spend the night before heading up but bring water. There was no handle on the pump.

Lots of pictures and more details on my
