Looking west down the North Fork Baron Creek drainage.  That steep 'V', where the canyon walls marks the anticipated crossing to the south side of the North Fork Baron Creek.  I've already convinced myself it will be easier than last year, due to somewhat lower runoff.  As I get closer, I take note of other possible log crossings.  Some look good, but they all involve some bushwhacking.  I will check the usual spot before any bushwhacking.
