Crossing one is fine. Crossing two I turned back on. Severely undermined bridges which audibly where cracking under me (140 w/ pack). Garbage bags would not have helped, even though the water was low, the only crossable spots where strainers. |

Several blowdowns which I noted for cleanup in the spring on Lincoln Brook (I'm the trail adopter) |

 | Comments: |
What a fun and rough day. Busted out from black pond to second crossing in wet sticky snow. See crossing notes above. I might have busted out black pond a bit funky, sorry, dont hate. It will get you there though. Should be a good snowshoe track! Needs a bit of time in the cold to firm the bridges up |
