A couple blowdowns to step over. One tangly blowdown soon after the big water crossing with the log. Larger people and packs might have a tricky time of it. |

A generous application of bug spray and a nice breeze kept them away but they were fierce at the end. Bugs everywhere on the road to the parking lot by the field. |

| Comments: |
Very nicely constructed trail. Some brief intermittent patches of monorail near the top but all but one were avoidable by stepping around or straddling. Bare boots were fine. The one unavoidable stretch (no more than 100 feet) had evidence of postholes, but most of the snow was quite solid despite warm temps. Several folks mentioned Rollins to Whiteface was still fairly snowy but that it was getting soft. |
