Comments
Comments: My first time on the Brook Trail - had to get this one before the snow flies as it crosses through fun glades and ski trails - LOVE this trail!!!! For the descent, from the top, I accidentally went on a similar trail but NOT the Brook Trail - still had yellow blazes and all but avoided the Saddle Trail connection the real trail intersects. Weirdly, I lost GPS signal in that location - I was using the GPS-enabled Belknap Maps. So, although I was pondering heading to Belknap Mtn, I couldn't make the connection without heading back uphill. Although it wasn't *that* hot, I didn't want to go back uphill :) ..... still a nice trail!!!!
