Waited a bit for rain to stop then headed up. Wasn't sure what I was going to do so I just did Jennings. Really love these trails!!!! Pondered revisiting Sachem as it's so easy from the northern col with Smarts Brook Trail but the woods were just still too wet. Stopped at the old cemetery on Old Waterville Rd Trail on the way back and checked out the cellar holes - neat place!!!! About 14 miles RT and I wasn't breaking any records for speed or time :) |
