We arrived around noon today, Sunday, and quickly found a parking spot in the large lot. We were excited to find a system of trails without snow, and upon arrival quickly progressed to Cougar Pass. Terrific signage! The fog was brilliant in the way it blended with the sunshine and poured through the trees.
The trails were clear but mucky with decaying leaves. Many trail drains were full-- no surprise-- with some standing water on trail a few inches-deep to highlight the bounty of rain we've recently received. The backs of our calves were freckled with mud on the way out. A couple trees are down, but no problems stepping over for us or our pup! We encountered many folks near trailheads, and significantly fewer the farther out we were.
