 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Still spaces at 8:30 at Glen Ellis while Pinkham was overflowing more than I've ever seen today with Seek The Peak going on. Also Rocky Branch never came close to filling. |

|
|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
My last crossing (or the first one if going up Rocky Branch route) was a little difficult. Poles helpful. Used wet rocks which will be submerged with higher water levels. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
If there have been recent rains the upper Davis Path and sections on Glen Boulder and Isolation Trails will get you very wet as corridor is very narrow. The normal blowdowns, rotted bog bridges and water booby traps to deal with. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Water available except for above tree line. |
|
 | Bugs: |
Buzzing around but no issue. |

 | Lost and Found: |

 | Comments: |
Special thanks to the NH crew for a ride back to Glen Ellis. Great day above tree line and all the trails in the Isolation area were drier than normal. Still plenty of water/mud pockets to catch you if not careful. Fairly busy but never crowded. With the upcoming forecast RB route most likely to become a wet slog again. |
