Comments
Comments: Trails were generally dry.
When taking Old Stage Road, do note that you bear right after passing the swamp (there's a prominent logging road that makes you want to go left).
The viewpoint near the top of the Anna-Old Stage Road Link was recently pruned, so it's much stronger...well worth the few minute, slight descent from the summit of Anna to get views.
Anna-Goat Pasture Hill Trail is much smoother sailing now that there's a BRATTS trail adopter; the juniper has been pruned back!
