| Comments: |
Started at 6 this morning heading up Watatic and ended about 6:30 coming down off North Pack. Long day (9 peaks and one hill) and long miles (21 total) but really worth it. Weather was overcast until this afternoon but temps never made it too hot. Trail is really fun except for section before Binney Hill Road were logging has beeen done and made a huge eyesore out of the area. |
