What a gorgeous weekend! Unfortunately, I had to work both days trying to finish up some last minute painting before the rain. But I was thinking of you all; up looking for larches or whatever...
Anyway, that left me with a few hours today to do my weekly trail check at Lord Hill. Since this is my "first" report, I thought I would do my favorite trail. ;) The Midway is in good shape, as well as the Midway Cutoff. Didn't have time to go all the way to the Riverview, which is my usual route. (I have to keep recalculating the sunset each week.)
With the short daylight hours, and snow in the mountains, I've already noticed an uptick of reports to the usual lowland hikes. Since I frequent LHRP a lot, I'll try to post some helpful tips on the trails. Here, the forest isn't something you walk through on your way to your destination; it is the destination. Slow down and enjoy the woods. Walk instead of hike...
(I am taking over the duties of reporting on Lord Hill from "mato", who refuses to do them anymore. Something about "too many of them". How can that be?)

Darn, I guess mato didn't want to be mayor of LH =( Hopefully we will still see some trip reports from mato from time to time! As a Lord Hill newbie, I'll be looking forward to upcoming info =)

mato is alive and well. He was concerned that his hike reports were getting cluttered with side trips to Lord Hill, which isn't really a hike. Besides, he doesn't want the notoriety.
I, however, am delighted to take over, as I'm all about Lord Hill!

It is always great to see the latest conditions and what there is to experience during different seasons. Thanks for posting.

Holy Cow! On my first report, I get a visit by a veteran of over 400!
I am honored, sir.
