I hope everyone has been enjoying their somewhat snowy hikes! The trail is melting, slowly but surely, and wildflowers are popping up daily. I hiked last week on July 17th and had a lovely time hiking in the snow. Please remember to watch out for dangerous snow bridges and try to stay as close to the trail as possible when walking over snow. We don't want to cause resource damage by inadvertently making a new trail. The latest trail update from Carol Miltimore is that the trail is snow free to plot 4 and about 50% snow covered to plot 9.
Thanks for all the wonderful data and trail updates so far! You all are doing a wonderful job documenting snow presence and absence.

In other news, I saw 2 fawns along the road last week and they were extremely adorable! I'm hoping to see the grouse family very soon. Comment below if you've had any wildlife sightings this year!
