Re: Muddy Meadows Loop (Mt. Adams) 10-6-23

Did the Thomas Lake - Junction Lake loop hike on Wednesday the 18th. Most of the red foliage was gone, but the yellows were good. Trails were very wet after the heavy rain day last week. The views were still spectacular. Mushrooms were very abundant. Blue lake here:

Re: Aldrich Butte/Table Mountain access update?

Thanks for the update. We could always use the old route, drive up to the back of ridge and walk the short distance to the top.
