|
| Water Crossing Notes: |
There are three water crossings on the York Pond Trail coming up from the trailhead. The first is a dam of sorts. There was a plank across the spillways but it looked like it had been put back in place after being removed for the winter Long story short I don't know if spillway will be passable. The second crossing is a non-issue and the third is doable with a little thought. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
York Pond and Bunnell Notch trails are non-issues. The Kilkenny Ridge Trail between York Pond and Bunnell Notch trails has several blowdowns across the trail. Most can be ducked under but two of them will require some kneeling\hands and knees to get under them. With some more snow they will soon be step overs... |

| Dog-Related Notes: |
Depends how they handle water crossings and powdery snow. |
