| Comments: |
The trail was dry except for a minor mud pit just above the brook crossing until reaching the ATV/Snowmobile section. As usual, puddles, mud and ruts from the ATV use. Some have made a few new tracks around the harder ledges and are tearing those areas up as well. Nice views from the summit with a light breeze kept the bug to a minimum. |
