 | Comments: |
judging from the large amount of moose poop and tracks, kilkenny ridge trail appears to be primarily a true "herd" path. even the blowdown bypasses seem to be created by moose. unfortunately did not see a moose.
these were 87 & 88, and hope to hit 100 with fort by end of august. anyone out there want to do scaur ridge via ski slope this summer? |
