Slowindown did a good job with their trip report, I wanted to provide a couple more pictures of the blowdowns.

There are 4 blowdowns which impact the center of the tread and 3 more that encroach on the edges a little. The biggest is about a foot in diameter.

Great hike. Some puddles in places. Pretty sure lost my wallet, however. If found, i can meet up with someone.

well maintained water in some spots

Beautiful and crowded, as always. The fall foliage is definitely worth a trip out. There were a few puddles here and there, but it's still passable in trail runners or even sneakers if need be.
