 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Brackett Brook was challenging due to ice on some of the rocks. The best place I found was 10 yards downstream from the Trail crossing. |

 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trails in fine shape, as par with AT and DOC. I did briefly detour on my descent on an old woods road that is more prominent than the Trail, for a while. There were quite a few icy patches higher up, but no major floes and no need for traction. |

I met two dogs and three people. |

Mt. Cube, Summit and North Peak
Odd to scan the panoramas north from North Peak and south and west from the Summit on December 19 and see no white. |
