Trail snow-free the 2 miles to the falls. Several trees down across trail.

Trail is logged out to Boulder Creek with no plans log out beyond that point this year. Trail is impassable to stock. New wash-outs from high water from Boulder Creek to the Boulder Creek trail due to a slide at MilePost 4. There is no safe place for stock to turn around other than the 2 points mentioned. The north approach to Cedar Crossing has slid into the creek and is very difficult to dangerous to negotiate this time of year (with very high water flow) Definitly impassable to stock and not recommended for hikers.
