 | Comments: |
Did a counterclockwise loop, up Falling Waters, across the ridge, and down Bridle Path. The water crossings were a bit deep and we weren’t able to avoid the water. The crossings were safe though, just a little moist. The trail was clear up to mile 2.75 heading up Falling Waters, then it was an icey monorail hiking to the ridge line. It wasn’t great, but wasn’t terrible either. The ridge and Bridle Path were ice and snow free. Overall, the trail is in great shape, perfect for a little hiking, a little trail running, and a little being out in the woods. |
