Trail Maintenance Notes: A few suspended blowdowns on the north side that are easily ducked under or stepped over - no herd path needed thank you!

Comments
Comments: Lovely day for an early spring cleanup, as I got a jump on my trail maintenance (I'm the trail adopter for Blueberry Mtn Tr). Saw two other hikers near the summit but that was it. The trail at present is almost entirely snow free and relatively dry. There were some icy sections in the morning, but by afternoon the ice was mostly gone. Muddy sections are more on the north side but can be dryly navigated via rocks and logs on the trail. I took out almost all the blowdowns (mostly north side) and cleared out drainages. Things are in good shape overall, enjoy this peak with its sweet views for moderate effort! (*Visit both north and south side ledges!)
