|
 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Almost full at 10:00. 3 of 4 hikes I've done this June have had the most cars at their lots that I've ever seen before. Wondering if Franconia Notch situation is spreading hiker use elsewhere. Few hundred feet of new pavement on eastern end of Tripoli Road (can always hope for more). |

|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
Got feet a little wet on crossing at start of south branch of Mt Tripyramid Tr. but looked like a better crossing slightly down stream going down the bank. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
Couple of blowdowns between Middle and North causing herd paths. On the topic of herd paths; the upper section of Pine Bend Brook Tr. may have more herd paths (sometimes on both sides of trail) than any other trail in the Whites. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Shiya (Corey's dog) did North Slide to South Slide. Some dogs may have issues with open steepness and slick spots. |
|
 | Bugs: |
If you stopped they were horrible. Winds helped somewhat up higher. |

 | Comments: |
Great weather and views today on the Tri's. I went up South and down Scaur Ridge but everyone that I talked with said North Slide was mostly dry and fine. Worst part looping this route is upper section of Pine Bend Brook Tr.; lots of wet awkward drops too high for normal stepping. Nice running into Corey & Shiya again and the BA hikers Ginger & Casey coming in from Livermore off the Kanc. Trails fairly dry except for first stretch on south end of Mt. Tripyramid Tr. which was still wet and muddy. |
