I'll second what Mr Wilcock said in his recent trip report... Bridge over Indian Creek is in, but no railing yet. Bridge is secure enough, but could cause injury if you fell off; use caution.
Trail is occasionally overgrown with very thick brush from miles 4-9. I lost the trail twice, once ascending, and once descending. Navigation skills are necessary.
Carry plenty of water. Last good water source on way up is about five miles in, just beyond junction with Airplane lake trail. If you run out in the next 5-6 miles, plan on bushwhacking to the main creek.
Descending this trail is easier than ascending, so choose wisely.
