Comments
Comments: A bunch of redlining in this area, nice to finally explore these shorter trails. Mostly dry conditions with just a few areas of minor mud. Easy grades and footing for the most part. Nice framed view of Chocorua from the summit of Katharine. Plenty of water in Tilton Spring if needed for you or your pups. All pleasant trails except for the road walk portion of Red Path (not a fan of road walks). I also found what I believe (?) to be an old, abandoned segment of that trail. It still had evident footbed and faded blazes.
