Trail Condition Impassible
Water Abundance Over running
Trail Comment With recent rain/snow/freezing rain the trail was very wet and over running with water in several places. The ice storm had knocked down many branches and trees on to the trail, but for the first 1.5 miles no parts were impassible. Hikers that went further said closer to the finish after turning off Brumley Mountain Trail it was difficult to pass without climbing through drooping rhododendrons covered in ice and blow downs. Other hikers reported to have made it.
Hike Comment It was a family and Cub Scout pack 348 Webelos Den outing. Plans to return in the spring.
