Trail 203A all the way to Blastzone Butte is in great condition. Small blowdowns here and there but nothing too hard to walk over\under. There were a few folks descending during our ascend and after about 1 mile we saw no other souls on the trail. Trail 230A turns into trail 230 and this trail is also in great condition. Those who have fears of heights might find this trail a bit nerve wrecking. The trail narrows significantly with a steep slope drop off to the left. Take your time and you will be fine. A small snow field was encountered just below the saddle Blastzone\Coldwater peak saddle but was easily avoided by going up and around it. We were lucky to have gotten above the cloud line and get a nice view of Helen. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1yB8aJToVFr9NWtDqyUEf3UQbaT937Npj/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BNTwLcM7ocw4U8JT4Oqu5Frx5LuEt7iR/view?usp=sharing
