Today I went up to the Paradox Lake area and hiked in towards Pharaoh Mountain.  Overall, I didn't know what exactly to expect since it is shoulder season and mud season.  I wasn't planning on going high, just in and around the ponds at the base of the mountain, but you never know.

The hike in to Crane pond was quite nice.  A couple small blow downs, and a few deep puddles that I needed to step to the side to get through.  In no time, I found myself at the road to Crane pond and was surprised to see someone had driven in.  Overall, pretty good shape.
