Cleared a few leaf-clogged waterbars that were sending water down the trail. A couple of blowdowns near the start of the trail to Klem, but I suspect the beavers will pull them out in the next few days. Installed a new step and 12 feet of cribbed footbed. |

Trails were wet due to the heavy rains that let up this morning. Lots of puddles and areas of running water. Lots of wide puddles on the eastern shore of Round Pond. |
