|
| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Lots at the Lodge on Ravine Lodge Rd. BUT people are parking every which direction rather than all pointing out. This will make it hard for people trying to get in and out give that it's a one lane road practically. Effort should be made to turn around and park facing out the road so, that you an just head out at the end of the day. |
|
| Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
| Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
Water is high given recent rains but all water crossings are bridges. Those that are not bridged are easy to cross. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Someone at the DOC recently trimmed the upper Gorge Brook trail. It's much less grown in. All other trails are in great shape. But I did note a lot of erosion on Gorge Brook Below 3300 feet. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
This is an easy loop for Dogs. Lil' Nugget loves it. There were 2 other dogs out today. |
|
| Bugs: |

Like visiting an old friend. My 8th visit to this peak and we made good time so a nice peaceful sit at South Summit was in order so I could eat my soup. :) This loop is a classic and one that should be enjoyed by all. |
