Hi Folks After a long hiatus, this heavily flood-damaged trail has an official re-opening as of this week. All bridges are in place, and at key points, flagging tape and cairns will give you clear indication, which way to go. Given the current rainy weather conditions, the trail has numerous muddy sections. Caution also on the slippery, snow covered, wooden bridges. With Guinn's Pass in mind, travel was done to Lillian Lake instead, at which point, this party of one decided to return. Some work remains to be done, and Lillian Lake campsite will continue to be closed, until further notice. But for now enjoy this trail for what it is, a beautiful hike in the mountains. Happy Trails Martina Wakeman ACMG Hiking Guide Based on my own observations, on a completely separate note, an update on current conditions of 'Mount Trash-more'. It is not an isolated peak, but rather a common sight in the Mountain Parks these days, growing in volume, and is a concern for the welfare of our wildlife/places. We are all stewards of this land, and are invited to 'pay it forward', by leaving road/parking and picnic sites, as well as trails cleaner than we found them in. Thank you to all who choose to participate:-)
