We parked in the Reeves Meadow area, and headed up the Pine Meadow Trail, to the Stony Brook Trail, to the Kakiat trail, to the Cascade of Slid waterfall. The Cascade of Slid was starting to dry up due to the lack or rain. We continued to HTS Trail, where we crossed the brook where the bridge was out. We then took the HTS Trail up to Chimpmunk Mountain, where there is a really good blueberry tree near the top. At the expansive view on the top we turned around and took the 7 Hills Trail down back toward the brook, and then took the Pine Meadow Trail all the way back to the trailhead.
