All easy. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
The Royce Trail has quite a few blowdowns, branches down, and puddles/streambed-like stretches. But there is nothing difficult to get around.
There is very little ice and snow left on these trails and it's easy to avoid. Allegedly the upper White Arrow Trail may still need to be done with some traction. White Dot and White Cross don't need it I was told. |

 | Comments: |
It was a great day for hiking, though a bit chilly for April. Distant views were somewhat hazy but snowy Mt. Washington and the Boston skyline were visible. |
