Comments
Comments: Trails were dry with any old mud pits basically dried up as well. The trails are in great shape and even Old Clough Road had seen some recent blowdown removal. Reed Road Trail is a bit overgrown in places but the foot bed is wider than I recall in years past. Old Clough Road has been taken over by mother nature some since it has seen less use. Still very easy to follow and has a very noticeable foot bed. The grass is getting tall in places but not an issue at this time. Active logging operation off the end of Glidden Road. The Herd Path goes near the operation but not too close. I could see some equipment through the trees.
