| partners | | Headed up to the very smooth 172A up to Roger's Trough TH at the crack of dawn this morning. The goal was to hike up Rogers Canyon making a stop at the ruins, check out Angels Basin post fire, then head up Frog Tanks to the Fish Creek intersection. Rogers Canyon area has been devastated by flooding because of the fire. The trail is hit and miss in a lot of spots and is very hard to find/follow most of the time especially as you get closer to the ruins and the entire way after. Quick stop at the ruins, then headed over to Angels Basin. There was fire damage, but it was not as bad as I thought, great news! Then headed up Frog Tanks heading for the Fish Creek intersection and plans quickly changed. Frog Tanks was also devastated by flooding and the trail is now non existent. After about 1 mile up we decided to stop for lunch and call it a day. I was completely gassed by the time I got back to the TH from all of the extra effort to crossing the creek numerous time trying to find the best way, but at the end of the day it was a great 12 mile hike. Highlight of the day was me falling knee deep in quicksand.  |
