all wooden bridges were in fine shape. There wasn't really any water under them, though. |

| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
I think if I were to pick a trail that needed some attention, it would be the Semuhenna. It looks like it has seen a lot of use recently. It could use a few more blazes. There are a few spots where the trail is really wide and muddy and it might be difficult for someone unfamiliar with it to find their way. |

| Comments: |
I only passed four people on the way up and maybe six on the way down. There was one other person at the summit while I was there. The tower is still fenced off for the maintenance project. |
