5/ day one continued after covering the ridge west of Baden Powell down to Little Jimmy spring and then sunset at Islip saddle before going over Williamson to get city lights of Los Angeles after dark. Past Williamson the endangered frog closure left 2.7 miles of roadwalk detour down to Buckhorn camp to end the day (~31 miles / 8,000 feet of climbing, the big hump of the route)

6/ my volunteer trail crew chief got in touch randomly day one and when he realized where I was hiking he asked if I could scout the wilderness zone approaching Islip saddle and Mt Williamson for an upcoming project. Good timing, hope it helped. They were aware of a lot of these but I was able to extend the known issues. They cleared this all with hand tools yesterday and today.
