- Blowdowns
A group of us wandered up to the Boulder River for an autumn walk in the rain. Turned out to be a pleasant day under the heavy tree cover, the river is often visible through the thinning tree leaves. Stopped after the second or third blow-down (maybe 2 miles in'), though others had clearly gone further. The first blowdown is on a switchback, people are making a number of alternate trails to get to the 'upper' level, then you cross on rough broken stuff where the trail should be. The turnaround point was at a creek. A light hatchet or saw would make both of these much easier to get by.
