Roman went backpacking April 16 to April 17, 2016 9.5 miles 1,250 feet gained 1 night
Not many views or landmarks on this trail, but Badger Creek itself is nice (more like a river right now - lots of water) and shady forest was perfect for the hot weekend. Cleared about 10 blowdowns in the first 4.5 miles, smaller trees where my bow saw was practical; cut branches off the bigger trees.
