Trails: Castle, Israel Ridge, Castle Ravine...Edmands Col Cutoff and out via Randolph Path..
We were worried about water crossings but did them all with taking boots off tho we needed to check around for best options...not many blowdowns and a few brushy spots on all trails...mud minor and running water esp. on Castle Ravine trail...debris on crossing on CR was done easily, stable footing..CR ravine boulders were dry and good footing, otherwise those in the woods were slippery and needed caution there...fog lifted just as we broke into the climb up the headwall and views were good today..left a car at Appalachia and started from Bowman, plenty of room on this Monday..Lefty E
