| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
The Hi-Cannon trail, from the Lonesome Lake trail, is void of any blazes (at least that I could see). There's a few spots now where you can see people have taken an alternate route vs. the actual trail. They all end up in the same spot, but in the winter, this trail would be a nightmare to fine. IMO |

Saw a few dogs. All super friendly and happy. |
|
| Bugs: |
ZERO!!!! |
|
| Lost and Found: |
Found one Providence Bruins gray baseball hat on a rock on the way down Lonesome Lake trail. Left it, seemed 'freshly placed' |

Completed my 19th peak, and it was also my daughter's first 4000 footer! Great day, zero wind, zero issues, hardly saw anyone else on the trails. Overall, an amazing day for us. BLOG story and pictures at link below. |
