Trail Description:
It seems we hike Posadas early every year and this was no exception. Unfortunately the cold, shade and time of year combined to limit flower production, but it was good to get out and about after all the rains. Ferns, mosses and lichen were profuse however, and the lushness made for an almost rainforest like effect.
