The 2 bridges were perfect! The smaller water crossing at the beginning was an easy big step over. |

Maintenance was OK. Many parts were very used. Lots of rocks to step over, around and on. Thought it was odd to see 2 pallets on a muddy spot...very unstable. Easier to walk around. |

 | Comments: |
I was surprised to see no one on trail after passing 2 very nice woman at the start. Then I hit the AT heading N/S met several AT'rs. All very nice and in great spirits. As I headed up past the cairns I came to a top full of people! I felt I just hike Monadnock and needed to reserve a spot to sit...it turns out a wedding was on...perfect day for it!
Great hike...beautiful views in all directions. |
