12.20.14 trail conditions on Kings Mt. are very wet!
Took a slight detour and used the old original cat track that was the only way up to Kings before they
added the formal TH on Hwy 6 -
My watch over reported the EG, only off 150' or so:

I think that "very wet" is an understatement! You should be wearing a life jacket!
Some people are really fit at eighty; thankfully I still have many years to get into shape…

The "ex'stream'" part of your title is perfect!
The mountains are calling and I must go.

I love the extsream creek sloshing pics! Is that the little bridge-less stream crossing near the Kings/wrt junction? That thing fills up fast!
That's what I was thinking too

Thanks all for the replies!
Been down with a pretty bad head cold since Sunday, probably due to my little foray into Dog Creek(?) when
making my prank picture of the streamy trail conditions
Yeah Sean, that's the one. It's the same stream just west of KMT that runs pretty much year round.
Used your stream footage technique too!

That's just awesome, EP! I hope to get out there soon to check out the damage done by all the recent rain and high winds.
How's your recovery from that bad head cold coming along?
