Uno Peak Trail gone for years :-(

I came from the South Navarre Campgound side since I was visiting my dad down in Manson. I was hoping to at least take the Summit Trail north to the Uno Peak loop junctions and even the Staircase intersections exploring possibilities for going to Stehekin. The Summit trail from the campground is doable, going down, and I made it all the way to where the Safety Harbor trail should have intersected the Summit. I could not find any evidence of an intersection thanks to the extensive fire damage. Even the moto tracks were "lost" because their tracks go way off the trail also. Since I had no further clean path to climb to the Staircase region, I just turned around and began the retreat to the campground, half pedalling, half hike a bike, defeated due to the moto ruts and gravely bed. Track and pics are here. For you solitary campers, I was the only person at the campground all day, mid July! Thanks to the 2017 fire, I won't be doing this side for years to come. The road was OK (30 miles of dirt, Subaru legacy did it but higher clearance is advised). Washington's version of the Hana highway in spots.  ;-)
