Comments
Comments: Spent the night before at an AirBnB in Sangerville and this was my first short redline of the day: and OAB on Mtn Link Trail, a new addition to the 12th ed of the MMG. The trail connects the Big Moose parking area with Loop Trail by Big Moose Pond. The trail has mostly easy or moderate grades and I think the footing was decent. I don't recall the ground conditions well but I think there were some areas prone to mud. Gaia had me at 3.2mi, 225ft of gain, 1hr16min.
