Comments
Comments: Made a nice loop up Belknap and Piper. I hadn't been on the upper portion of the White Trail in a while. A very nice section of trail with a couple nice view points. Most of the blueberries are gone but I did see a few small patches that are still pickable. Trails were dry all around.
