After leaving the main trail at the Invincible ck. bridge we tested our endurance on the fire road. From previous trips I remembered it as full of fallen logs and bushy , a few years later if anything it's worse than before.

Not the jungle but close

More obstacles on the fire road

The road ends at a large clearing and from there we followed a series of game trails with intermittent faded flagging and a few cairns to the viewpoint for a rather short lunch.


Smoky views from the viewpoint

Even with the smoky conditions we had a good hike , thanks to all participants: Bill,Aldis,Jeannette,Inge,Brian,Harold,Lenard,Katrin,Krystyna,Chip from Francisco C/S
