Was planning on doing section 11 but knowing you will be out I might defer. ha!
What are your dates?
Have not decided mine yet.
Looks like Sun, Mon, Tues, Wed. So, I need you to meet me at the bottom of the mountain, headed north, on Wed morning. Im gonna need some help with my pack, and since you'll be fresh...works out great!
I would take you up on the offer but my hiking partner (10 year old daughter) fell off a 6 ft tall retaining wall a couple of days ago.Quote:

Mar 3-5 I did Sections 10, 11 and 12. Only saw 8 people the whole weekend on the trail. This trip was a north to south. Section 11 is dry and has lots of downed trees on the south end. It was an enjoyable solo hike. Am planning Sections 8 and 9 mid April.
Ran from Coleman Lake almost to Pine Glenn and back this morning. Trail looked good other than the Turkey Hunter seated on the trail with his scatter gun (orange not required).
There was about a mile that was still smouldering from a controlled burn around the Shoal Creek Church. Very little smoke.
Sorry to hear that. Trip was great...except for Dugger MtnQuote:
