McClellan Butte 2016-07-20

10.73 miles and 3,750 feet of elevation gain.

Several blowdowns on the upper portion of the trail.  One required climbing on top of a tree and walking along it for about 25 feet.

Fortunately, this is a very rare site along the trails. 

On the way up

 Rock fall across the trail at one of the snow chute areas.




The big blowdown





 Many trees down with a detour to the right.

The top we never climb up.





Heading back down and the start of the blowdowns.

The trail used to drop down into this little basin with a tarn and an abundance of huckleberries.
