Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Thanks to trail adopter Bill for keeping all those waterbars clear, and brushing. No blowdowns. Down low, this trail could use more hardening in the mucky spots. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Four-legged friends, you'll be glad to know that the notorious six-legged "friends" were nowhere to be seen. Cajun squirrel dog Maple, you're a GOOD GIRL! 
Bugs
Bugs: The handwritten signs warning about a wasp nest must be from a warmer season. I stayed on the trail the whole time, including doing the small loop at the top and the side trail to the view of the lake, and never saw a wasp or a nest. I left the signs so other hikers can make their own decisions.

Comments
Comments: This was a nice hike. Another hiker who took the snowmobile trail to avoid the alleged nest said that it is still wet on that trail.
