Comments
Comments: Saw this little loop in the Southern NH Trail Guide and decided it would be fun after a morning of paddling Lake Massabesic - not really that far from the lake. Said 5 miles for the loop but I clocked 6 - I must have done something extra near the Boulder Trail. REALLY fun going up North Pawtuckaway - that's a really nice trail with beautiful ledges - never saw anyone there!!! Boulders are always fun unless you get scared watching people climb (EEEEK). The bypass trail wasn't too interesting but it's always fun looking around the woods. Very pretty woods.
