Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: both crossings are easily rock hopped. They are both close to the trailhead. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Trails are in fine shape other than the lack of blazes on the Drake's Brook trail. At one point about half way down, the trail meets the brook and it's confusing as to where to follow. I followed the brook down and there on the left I found the trail. But it wasn't marked. Also one blow down on Drake's brook at about the half way point. A large birch tree easily hopped over.

Comments
Comments: I had planned to go to Sandwich Dome but Jennings was so satisfying I decided to make it my destination. I great moderate hike. Water crossings are at the start and end of the hike close to the trailhead. Once you're beyond that you're good.
