    This should be very helpful to Kingsford, Hotlips, et al. Glad to see they improved that log bridge.

    Thanks Loki (and Scrambles!)

    Hey all! D1, D2, D3, and I will be hiking in sometime Friday afternoon. Didn't know if we'd make it, but the stars have aligned. Looking forward to seeing everyone and sharing some time in piney woods.

    GrannyPat, here's a weather link centered on the Fish Hatchery.

    As promised...here's the video...
    Special thanks to Scrambles for hiking along with us.
    You brought the route to life! Thanks Loki and Scrambles, for making getting lost almost impossible
    Want to try and practice your backpacking skills or
    Contemplating taking along your llama, Sherpa, doggie, or kitchen sink?

    You decide - Here's a video showing you every step of the way.
    We fast-forwarded the video during the flatt(er) and easier parts of the trail.

    The rest of the video shows every intersection, bridge, creek crossing and stride along the way. Oh, and all of the roots and rocks too.
    ... No, really !!

    The hike up takes about 30-45 minutes while only carrying a daypack (includes a few brief rest stops). With extra gear - gear that you are used to carrying - Allow yourself an hour so you won't feel rushed - and so you probably won't run out of daylight.
