….CAUTION: The NFS Cottonwood Creek Trail marked as ----on my map, follows Cottonwood Creek and thus initially is on private land. At parking lot (N+C 02 on my map), follow trail marked by signs. This stays on NF land.

…. SIDE NOTE: Based on the Narrator's statements, about when their trip took place, would date their Mountain Climb on or around 17 July 1968. Thus a proper set of trail photos illustrating the Narrator's Climb would show a mid-summer's lush green. Many of my 2002 Photos show mid-summer green.
…However, the next 5 (and many of my other photos), were taken 10 September 2006, and show, by contrast, dry-season brown grass and early fall tree colors. This is, of course, due to the rapid change of season in High Mountains and Northern Latitudes.

…I apologize for a) Not being able to visit & photograph this forest at a more realistic time of year. b) And for not yet finding the opportunity to explore and photograph a full trail, as described in ZMM

… Since my trail marked on my "Hypothetical Climbing Trail Map" is as yet only partly verified by Mr Joe Pioro, trail enthusiasts are invited, indeed STRONGLY urged, to volunteer their skill to a field check this map.
