We arrived at the trailhead at approximately 8 am and only one other vehicle was in the upper lot by the shelter. We had intended to hike the 8 mile Lost Valley Loop trail counter-clockwise,but approximately 1/4 mile in, the turn to begin the trail is blocked and closed for logging operations. Going clockwise. You can still have a lovely hike out about 4.5 miles (approx. 9 miles round trip) and the elevation gain is on this section, so a great day on the trail.
The trail is in good shape, no bugs.
