 | Comments: |
Boney on the bottom of Sandwich Mountain trail then better as you climb. Hillsounds all day were key. All kinds of people must have done this loop this past three day weekend. Trail was packed down and easy to follow. Spur to Jennings was worth the extra effort. Drake’s Brook trail was fine, but hasn’t seen the action that Sandwich Mountain trail has. |
