We headed out looking for interesting flowers on this trail, as we have other years. There were certainly plenty of them, somewhat later than usual. The showy Tweedy's lewsia were still plentiful and we saw golden columbine for the first time. A beautiful and rewarding hike. We went as far the the creek crossing, about 5.5 mi. There were seven trees across the trail, three of them large. None would be a problem for hikers but a couple would stop horses. The trail was in reasonable condition, only brushy here and there.
