Bt miles 1 way based on complete sections

45.9mi + 55.1mi + 51.9mi + 51.7mi + 45.5mi + 46.5 + 58.5 = 35 5.1mi

Miles out and back


Elevation


Parking was popular at pt19
It was last day of hunting season


Trail entrance at pt 19 the trailhead


The start is an old now closed road.


Absolutely amazing up here


View from the road.


Still on the ridge. I thought this was the turn but it's further down.


Still up on a ridge


This is a turn on the road.  It looks like you turn if you look at a map but continue what feels straight.


We are coming to the turn


If you look you can see this carsonite and one across the road and a bit higher than center to mark the turn and multiple trail blazes.


Here we have the turn down the hill


It is a long climb and you go to the bottom of the valley at pt 17


View of the work on the trail. 


There has been work here there are a few trees but not bad.


Still on the trail it's marked well.


Yep still on the trail


It is a bit of a mess down here.


The view to reach pt 17 coming from 18.


Across the road at pt17


I normally take picture one way and not on the path back. But these stones were of interest on the way back.


It looks like they have been worked.
