Comments
Comments: The recent rains have reduced much of the trail bed to slush or frozen slush with ice in places. There is running water on short sections of trail. Light traction is sufficient for the conditions. The snow pack to the sides of the trail is minimal.
No views today. Met many friendly hikers today. Two from CT bushwhacked to Barlett Mtn. Did not appear that the Weeks Brook Trail had been used recently.
