With the previous report we readied ourselves for the mass amounts of caterpillars. Yes they were still there, but for the most part tapered off and a non-issue. The alder trees are covered in their nests and you will still find them here and there. Trail was in great shape and the kids saw lots of dragon flies, frogs, and evidence of beavers. (den on the far side of the pond and many trees chopped down via the Beaver. No bugs really to mention. The wild flowers are in full bloom and so are the dandelions. My 5,7, and 10 yr old loved it though the 3 1/2 yr old in our party started to tire near the end.
