Comments
Comments: Nice day for a hike.



we extended the hike to the Church Pond trail across the kanc. The river was NOT rock hoppable and needed to take our shoes off. The bog bridges in the low areas near the pond are in very rough shape to the point where we were tripping on the very exposed nail heads. The bog section is very muddy.
