This is typical for the trail between Gunter Fork Cascades and the intersection for Balsam Mountain Trail. It's maybe 2 boots wide for a lot of it. I'd suggest taking this trail up and looping back with another trail down.

Just past the third creek fording down from Gunter Fork Cascade, heading toward Big Creek.

This was Gunter Fork Cascades, taken during a drought in November 2016. I'm sure it's much better during the spring or early summer.
A typical January scene on the Tricorner Knob-Gunter Fork segment of the trail.
