Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Trails were in good shape. However, it is important to note that Five Summers Trail gets very little use and parts of, especially the top half, are very overgrown. Some sections I walked through knee-waist-chest high patches of grass, shrubs, or small trees. Blue blazes are sometimes faded and few and far between in some sections so be attentive.

Comments
Comments: Hiked a 9 mile loop via Five Summers, M-S Greenway, and Bear Pond Trails. Lucia's Lookout is very neat with beautiful outlooks. The Greenway south was good and has a small and exclusive patch of spruce trees that you suddenly pop in and out of. This area, especially along the Pillsbury Sunapee Corridor is very wild and rural. I saw moose tracks in some mud and bear scat along the way. This park is beautiful with sparkling ponds and bumpy ridge lines.
