 | Comments: |
I was disappointed with this hike. The trail at the bottom and the top are a combination snow-mobile and hiking trail and was very wet and muddy while I was on it and not particularly pretty. The portion that is exclusively a hiking trail, needs a lot of improvements, especially water bars and hardening in places. The summit view of Plymouth and environs is due to the illegal removal of trees (without which, there'd be little to see). All in all, I don't think this deserves to be on 52 WAV. Just my opinion. |
