I really like this loop hike. We extended the official route some which added in some new area. The route we took up to the ridge probably wasn't the best but it worked. Hit a few areas with thick vegetation that forced us either higher or lower than we wanted but no biggie. Both the Brunson and Sparks Tanks were full and nice flow along the section of Sheep Creek we hiked. Much better temps than in the valley :)
