Comments
Comments: Bennington Trail is more lightly used than other trails, but we were pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to follow what we had thought would be an unmaintained trail. Two forks early on… go R on each one, following small faded orange discs nailed to trees.

No snow or ice… what a gift!

After our lollipop loop to redline Bennington & Lower Link, we hiked the Dalton Brook Accessible Trail to do some geocaching. Another super pleasant loop hike.
