Some stepover blowdowns on the grassy road portion of the trail, some of which will require a chainsaw. The narrow portion of the trail up to Black Mountain could use some brushing, as well as some blowdown removal (one with chainsaw). Nothing overly annoying though. |

Not bad at all. A mosquito or two and an apathetic deer fly, all of which only pursued for maybe a minute. Despite being a grassy trail, no ticks found. |

 | Comments: |
A surprisingly pleasant trail. A little bit muddy just above Great Brook, but otherwise dry and good going. Views from the summit are even less than they were last year. |
