Comments
Comments: took a different approach to Old Speck in order to tie up some loose ends in the Mahoosuc area..really liked the Grafton Loop Trail (west) as the footbed was not as rocky as the good ole Mahoosuc!! really enjoyed the summit area of Sunday River Whitecap...we also hit all 4 campsites on the GLT...Sargent Brook site water was pretty low, rest were good...we did this as a "sun up to sun down" day, felt a Bonds traverse!!
