Dry Trail |

|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
Most water crossings had ample rocks. A couple of them (if I recall, I think the Anderson Brook crossings) required removing shoes for a knee-deep ford. But it was very refreshing to do so. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Two high fives for whomever maintains the Nancy Pond Trail. Job well done! This is one of the most beautiful trails in the white mountains. The Desolation trail is a relentlessly steep, rough, and rugged climb, but a fun trail nonetheless. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Saw one happy dog. |
|
| Bugs: |
I thought black fly season was over, but it seems like they're just getting started. Wore sleeves, pants, and a bug net all weekend. They were out in full force. |

| Comments: |
I definitely recommend visiting Norcross Pond. The entire Nancy Pond trail is quite amazing, and makes for a very enjoyable hike. |
