|

|
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
All dry save one 1/2 mile above trailhead of OBP. Failure to dig out drains has resulted in water flowing down trail for ~ 100 yards. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Please refer to trip report from September 5 2015. Conditions noted there have worsened these two years past. Erosion both from boots and from water is accelerating. Many fixtures built by AMC-NH Chapter Volunteer Trail Crew onOBP are still in place, but many others have been dislodged and need to be re-set. All need to have the drains re-dug and other measures taken to stabilize this trail before long stretches wash away more than they already have.` |

Many, all seeming happy. |
|
| Bugs: |
Not a problem at this time of year. |
