Trail is open and dry. Only saw one small spot with mud. Lots of camping available along this trail.

This is a fun trail especially once you hit the mud! Great camping spots along this trail towards the end but if you camp close to waypoint 6 or 7 you will be very close to a quad track that people use all day and night. Very loud. But if you have a quad then it’s a great spot.

Ran west to east. West of Waypoint 7 was muddy with huge bogs. Several points were nearly impassable. 4WD and momentum to power through. I didn't get any photos of the bad spots since I didn't want to stop. If attempting to access East Pocket Road, taking Fry Lake Trail at Waypoint 7 is a better option.
