| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Plenty of room in the lot. |
|
| Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Wet/Slippery Rock, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
| Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
Most water crossings were across brooklets. The only significant water crossing was Chase Hill Brook where the trail meets at the confluence of two streams. The preferred crossing is on rocks over each of the feeder streams rather than across the main stream. This crossing could be tricky during high water. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Trail was in good condition well marked with blue blazes or cairns on the open ledges. There were also yellow/red/orange blazes on the trees which are probably demarcations for property boundaries. Good signage on trail. Most tree falls were on or near the ground however on Long Mtn there was one tree in the trail requiring a walk around and another that forced a duck under. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Should be okay for dogs as there was sufficient water and no excessively steep grades. |

| Bugs: |
None |
