| Comments: |
4 slow and steady hikers did the 4.1 mile hike with 775; elevation in just about 3.5 hours. Had lunch just below the summit of Nutting Hill because it was cold and windy. Being in the shoulder season we decided to bushwhack abound the icy parts of the trail instead of putting spikes on for the short distance. |
