| Comments: |
Thought we could stay low, clear, and dry. Trail was dry down low, but damp everywhere else. Summit was 97% socked in, cold, and windy. The big ledge on Mud Brook Trail was 50% socked in. Oh well, still a good enough day. Trail is in good shape, although the top half of the Caribou Trail is rough in general, and Mud Brook Trail has some mud pits (go figure). |
