_MG_9766-ClearedPineRiverTrail  [67 of 73]

When we hiked out from our second eight-day backpacking trip, we were pleased to see that the Forest Service workers had managed to clear all the major obstacles on the Pine River Trail between Flint Lake Junction and the Pine River trailhead. Since all the work in the wilderness is done without power tools, this required a major effort. Trails into the high country, such as the Flint Lake trail, were not cleared as of the first week in August. Completing the work will require a lot of work, since we can attest that the largest avalanche on the Flint Creek blocked a quarter mile of trail.
