| Water Crossing Notes: |
Drakes Brook crossing on Sandwich Mtn Trail was fine for 3/4 of us but being a water crossing wimp I took off my boots- rocks were slick and the last time we forded this the hubby lost his sunglasses; bad karma. On descent via the Drakes Brpok Tr it was easier. |

| Comments: |
Despite clouds rolling in at the summit this is still a great, moderate mountain with nice views at Noon Peak's ledges. (And reportedly at Jennings' summit, which we skipped hoping to bear the clouds). Someone apparently had a campfire at Sandwich's peak, rather a no-no I thought. |
