Put together a ~5/5.5 mile loop of these trails this afternoon. There is a short stretch of the Hobart Railroad Grade that seems like it is set to be the southern boundary of an upcoming logging operation. Otherwise, Hobart is in pretty good condition.
The Fifteen Mile Creek Railroad Grade portion of the loop is well on its way to becoming quite overgrown. Fresh growth is pushing in on the trail, so it could definitely use a pass with some clippers or even just some more traffic to help keep all that nature (temporarily) at bay. I think it's pretty neat coming across the most substantial bridge I've ever seen on what currently feels like a game trail. This stretch should have *a lot* of salmon berries in the near future, if that's what you're into.
