| Comments: |
Zealand and Ethan Pond Trails were dry and in good shape. Went up one of the slides to Whitewall, then cut across a gully up to the ledges, then headed across the marshy area to the recognized summit. Best views from ledges (superb), but also some decent views from near the highpoint. From there, headed north and browsed vast glades, eventually rejoining the A-Z Trail at 2700-2800 feet - some wet spots, but generally pretty nice. |
