 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
2-3 blowdowns, easily stepped over except 1 big arse red pine about a mile in - 16-20" in diameter and 16-20" above the ground. Not a step over nor a step under. I'm tall and it's a straddle-swing leg over, or go around. Looks like a fresh blow down but another hiker said it was there a month ago. |

Mostly dry trail till 1800' then sporadic ice on trail. Ledges were bare for the most part, wet but not slippery. Snow/ice right at 2500'. At 2600' I put on my Hillsounds for the rest of the way up. All snow and ice above 2600'. Monorail was fairly firm. Great day out! |
