Hello all!  I am happy to report that I made this trek yesterday, May 6th 2023.  The lake was at 6918', which is 10.88 feet below Full Pool... it was full!  I had hoped to make this run last November before the wildlife closures, but couldn't swing it... whoops!  Anyways, don't underestimate the bushwhacking on the north side of the lake.  I ended up swinging north to get around the full side drainages and also, I took more pavement than I had hoped.  I ran this solo, and I found plenty of water throughout the route.  Thanks to whoever thought up this route as it has a little bit of everything.
