Next week we are hiking from Humber Park to Little Round Valley, taking side trip to Summit on the way, then down to Strawberry Junction on way to Humber park.

Anybody know if water along the way? Every little bit helps!

Thanks!

Last time I went there was water in Round Valley near the ranger station. It was clean but we treated it anyway to be safe. I don't remember if that one was seasonal or not.

It may be a little out your way though from what I guess your trail would be, making you walk an extra 2.25 miles but at least it's there. It's easy to see, it's pouring out of a pipe and next to the trail.

If someone could confirm this as that I would apreciate it for my own trip as well. I'm planning on using it in October if it's still working. Anybody know anything about it?

There was water at all the normal spots when I was up there on the 12th. I can't imagine it's gone now. You should find water at LRV.
The difference between a good hike and a bad one is usually just a reflection of what I bring with me.

On Aug 13; lots of water flowing at Round Valley spigot, and in the creek about 1/2 of the trail from RV up to Wellman's divide. Nothing at Summit (of course)
