Nice TR. JMT in flip flops, new standard for ultra light.
Sorry to read about the wag bag noncompliance, but this is not unexpected. I saw a lot of wag bags on the trail in early August. The wag bag program was implemented without public input or environmental due process, but there may be a chance to weigh in some day. If there is an opportunity, please let them know what you saw and how this impacts you. The people making these decisions are in an office and all they hear is happy talk from Rangers about how great everything is and how toilets could never work. This thread is discussing the issue.

I was a little disappointed in the condition of Trail Camp. There were a couple of spots where people "did their business" and left it unwagged. In one case, it was no more than 20 feet from the pond. In the future, I think I will look for alternative camps during the summer months.
