Extremely wet day but we were adequately prepared. We attempted to connect from the other side of the Cinnamom Trail (from the Kalama Horse Camp) but got too late a start. We were short by about .4 miles! The trail is in excellent shape, and we hit some snow at about 2900ft. Nobody was on the trail or parked at the horse camp; figure that? We were about 100ft away before spotting an Elk, and it stopped briefly to look back at us before making an exit!
