| Comments: |
Mainly posted to report on low water and cleared up blowdowns on Downes Brook Trail. The blowdown field on Kate Sleeper is impressive. To go along with the low water, almost no mud.
On Downes Brook, after the 7th crossing, trail follows right edge of stream for a long way until cairns on both sides of stream. The end of Sabbaday Brook is a little confusing with multiple stream crossings, some that can be avoided. |
