| Comments: |
Trails were mostly dry.
Fire Road has now been rebuilt all the way to the Round Pond Trail.
Already plenty of leaves on the ground on Round Pond Trail, hiding some rocks.
Some decent foliage in places, including around the pond. Still green foliage as well. May not be an obvious peak for foliage here this year.
Chilly sunset on Mack, but not a cloud in the sky. |
