| Comments: |
Nice little loop not really well-described in the White Mountain Guide - a little obscure in places but I never lost the trail - all intersections are clearly marked.
Saw several people. Other than a couple of outlooks and some nice woods, this is probably a "once and done" for me!!!! Some of the grass was pretty high on the Four Soldiers Path. |
