Rock Creek — Thursday, Jun. 17, 2021

Made it up to the first crossing of Rock Creek before pitching the tent and cracking open my can of beer (funny how luke warm IPA always tastes great on the trail). For being "rarely used" the trail is in excellent shape. A bit of blowdown but nothing too difficult to get over/under/around, skeeters were a minor nuisance, and up until the eponymous creek was able to stay feet dry the whole way. Adding to ejain's 6/6/20 trip report, there is a slide area ~1.5 miles in that spells certain doom for this trail's usability when it finally decides to go (see pic), but for now it is holding strong. There is also a section of tread not far beyond that is starting to slough off into oblivion.
