The majority of water crossings are low or dry. There is one area at around 1.7 miles from parking that is considerably wet, however there are rocks/logs in place to get across staying mostly dry. Without being in drought, I can imagine this gets a little trickier, but not dangerous. |

| Comments: |
Blueberry Mountain Trail from Blueberry Mountain Road is a wonderful, gradual ascent. We continued past the ledges with the views on to the true summit. Found the side path easy enough, however lost it several hundred feet in (purely our fault). The trail passes through a split rock and continues to the right, we had been looking straight and went in that direction subsequently bushwhacking about 0.1 miles before popping back out on the tail end of the side path. We had the mountain to ourselves (on a holiday Monday in the Fall, was amazing) finally passing a family about 0.5 miles from the car. |
