Comments
Comments: The section of Baldface Circle Trail just below Eagle Crag has wet and slippery ledges. How they are slippery during a drought is a mystery to me. The Slippery Brook Trail is a pleasure to hike for the upper 2/3. The lower 1/3 is a little disjointed and seems to have been relocated or patched together. However, it is very well marked thru this area.
