Went past Chicken Corners. The trail isn't difficult, just narrow in spots on the north side of the pass. Some erosion but not much different from last year. Watch out for SxS and motorcycles. They often do not slow down much and will pass without warning.

Great trail. A few ledges to deal with once getting close to the pass. The big rains have made this trail a bit rougher. 🌵
