Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: The Hi-Cannon trail, from the Lonesome Lake trail, is void of any blazes (at least that I could see). There's a few spots now where you can see people have taken an alternate route vs. the actual trail. They all end up in the same spot, but in the winter, this trail would be a nightmare to fine. IMO 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Saw a few dogs. All super friendly and happy. 
Bugs
Bugs: ZERO!!!!  
Lost and Found
Lost and Found: Found one Providence Bruins gray baseball hat on a rock on the way down Lonesome Lake trail. Left it, seemed 'freshly placed'
