| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Slippery Brook has a snowmobile trail now that crosses it. I've hiked this trail several times before, but this time on the descent the snowmobile trail was clearer looking than the actual trail. We ended up doing a 2 mile detour. Better marking is needed. Also, Slippery Brook needs water bar maintenance. |
