Comments
Comments: Lincoln Wiids, Black Pond/bushwack, Lincoln Brook, Owl's Head path, Brutis bushwack

The slide was a challenge, one particular spot was very tricky but managed to get past it. Was very happy to find the Brutus bushwhack to go down, and although it was a bit challenging and long, was way better than the slide. The black Pond bushwhack was quite easy to find and follow. No snowshoes needed for this trip just spikes.
