| Comments: |
Trails were generally dry, thanks to years of work by the Belknap Range Trail Tenders to reduce the mud pits. From the top of the Benjamin Weeks Trail, I hopped onto the ski slopes and took those to the top (grass is still short). Still some patches of man made snow (and remnants of some recent natural snow up high).
Trailing arbutus and bellwort in bloom. |
