Comments
Comments: the Around the Mountain trail is blazed in very seldom to be seen small dark blue plastic triangles. It would be great to have larger, brighter colored blazes at regular intervals. And there were no blazes at all along the edge (or through?) Ohlson Field or along the edge of the parking lot. It would be great to have a trail sign at the other side of Ohlson Field from the parking lot, just to say, hey, here's where the trail enters the forest. The summit trail had a sign at the beginning and at the end, but was not blazed. The New England Trail (which is perhaps also the Metacomet Monadnock trail?) was very well blazed.
