| Water Crossing Notes: |
The main reason I’m posting this report is to warn of high water. Most crossings on these trails are still ok, but there’s one on Bondcliff that’s a little dicey. Do not, under any circumstances, attempt to cross the Pemi (or any other major river in the area) until water levels go down. |
|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
If we get many more rain events like this, that area on Lincoln Woods with the wooden fence will be completely washed away. There’s already caution tape around the fence. If it washes away completely, they’ll have to either reroute the trail up the embankment or build a bridge. |

| Comments: |
If you thought some of the recent storms were bad, this one takes the cake. Major crossings are dangerous and simply not doable until the water subsides. Some of the side crossings are sketchy too. |
