Comments
Comments: I did the loop clockwise to avoid the crowds that would soon pack the trail. I probably ran into 250-300 people as I was heading down from Welch. Several large groups were on the trail. Given the large number of people that hike W/D there was not any trash on the trail. I did admonish one lady for throwing her banana peel into the woods. Bananas are not indigenous to NH!!!Don't do it!!
