Road: The forest road has lots of potholes, but they're not too deep. There were only three other cars at the trailhead at 10am on this partly sunny November Sunday.
Trail: I love hiking here - the old trees, beautiful waterfalls, misty air, and mystical mushrooms are all a delight. A few parts of the trail were muddy or had some running water. There was a big blowdown a little bit before the second waterfall (named Meditation Falls on Gaia) that I had to take off my backpack to navigate. There were a few other fallen trees before that too, but they were much easier to navigate. I think the best lunch spots are at that waterfall and slightly further to a nice rocky overlook of the river.
Crowds: a very quite trail. Saw one group on my hike in, and three groups on my hike out.
EDIT: jacket found. Thank you!!
Lost: Teal REI fleece jacket (looks like this). If someone could pick it up, they're welcome to keep it, or I'll happily pay for shipping/handling to have it back. Email is mountainview.wta@gmail.com. Thanks!
