The trail was in great shape and
the temporart bridge across Fryingpan Creek at 3 miles in really no big deal. NOTE: there a lots and lots of ripe huckleberries right before the bridge. Summerland is still filled with wildflower blooms. I continues past Summerland up to Panhandle Gap. Travel time from car to Panhandle Gap, including a lunch break, was just over 2 hours. From Panhandle Gap a rambled cross-country along the ridge top to the east. Stupendous views, lots of goat families and fields abloom with blue campanula (yes, in September even!)
