As expected from what everyone else has mentioned— trail is “closed” therefore not maintained. But the first ~2.

Hiked the first 2ish miles of this trail until the wash-out from 2020. Ended up being a lovely time.

Parts of this trail were washed away in a February 2020 flood. You can access the first 2.
