Notes on trails on Mt. Woodson

June 14, 2004

I'm going to hike Mt. Woodson and survey some previously unsurveyed trails.

I set out at 8:54 AM and hike up the Fry Koegel Trail.

I notice that this part of the Fry Keogel Trail appears to be going right over
the top of that little hill.

9:51 0-76-58-80 Trail junction where we turned left the last time. This time I
take the right fork [roughly straight ahead].
