Narrative The May Valley Trail has undergone some reconstruction; rather than climbing straight up the ridge, there are gentle switchbacks between 950 and 1350 feet elevation, where the trail joins the old trail; thence the trail is brushy in spots. The Perimeter Loop Trail is brushy and has several logs across it. The West Peak Trail has a few brushy spots, but is otherwise in good condition. The West Peak Trail has been logged at its junction with the Bullitt Fireplace Trail making it easier to find. There is a side trail that breaks from the Bullitt Fireplace Trail just east of the Bullitt Fireplace and heads directly to Central Peak over a 80 foot rise. The Old Griz Trail has some brushy spots. There is low-lying brush including nettles along Phils Creek Trail. Weather Broken to overcast clouds. Moderate temperatures. Hazards and Obstructions Some logs across the Perimeter Loop Trail. Flora/Fauna Purple violets, salmonberry flowers, bleeding hearts, foamflower, trillium, Siberian miner's lettuce, cinquefoil and geranium. Robins and other birdlets seen. Camping Not permitted.
