 | Water Crossing Notes: |
The beaver dam which the trail passes behind after crossing Bailey Brook, and it's associated pond, are becoming problematic. The beavers are really taking over here and the pond is growing. It will soon compromise the trail. Bog bridges in this area need to be extended on both ends. Near the main ledges, the former route from the south, now closed but still blazed and clear, should probably be brushed in. Two people I met said they kept following it for a while. |

No issues, trail is in excellent condition. |
|

|
 | Bugs: |
Mosquitoes. |

 | Comments: |
A second visit to this new-ish trail, which replaces a former route that came up from the south. Mainly dry trail with a few areas of mud, and some standing water near the growing beaver pond. Good views from the various viewpoints. |
