Fire Warden's trail in good shape, a few very muddy spots. One are is flooded with a round log in the middle floating. Don't make the mistake I did and step on it, you'll sink to your calf. Otherwise good shape. Great views on all 3 peaks. Was going SOBO on the AT for a few miles and met 18 through hikers. Turn-off for Horn's Pond Trail was confusing- it is past the camping area, look for the sign. |
