| Comments: |
Nice loop up to Mt Rowe. Trails were generally dry with a couple small muddy areas that could be very swampy in the wet season on the Benjamin Weeks Trail. Upper sections of all trails had significant signs of water rushing down the trail bed. Could use some water bars. Got out this morning before it got too hot. |
