Lake Fork hike

Due to very windy conditions, our hike was postponed to Thursday; we will clear the Lake Fork Trail on that day. Bring gloves, sturdy boots and some tool to use for clearing the trail. We did salvage a break at Blimpies, so not all was in vain.
Tomorrow's hike (Tuesday) will be a conditioning hike for us; we will go up the West Bear Cr. trail, cross over to the East Bear Cr. trail and back to the trucks. The West Bear hasn't been cleared for several years so expect to contend with a lot of deadfalls. I advise you to bring extra water, energy bars, electrolyte drink or energy drink to prevent dehydration. The distance will be about 12 miles total. I expect to be back down by 5PM....................
