Crystal peak Crystal Lakes

Overall, the trail is in good condition. The log bridge just after the trail junction which goes to Crystal Lakes is washed out. The log is broken in 1/2 and it requires cautious stepping to make it across this area. On the upper part of the trail, there is one major section of snow remaining. It is about 200' across. It is passable, but requires firm ""march"" stepping to make an impact and get a good grip. Some hikers had chosen to go up and around this snowfield, however it looked like an extremely lengthy detour. There were many wild flowers along the way and we only encountered 6 other hikers on this Tuesday hike.
