Comments
Comments: Saw a moose right at the turn on Tower Road.
We went up Coots. Pretty steep all the way up and lots of scree. Picnic table at the top. Firetower was sturdy. Unfortunately, we had socked in views.
Go to the lookout.
Took Bobcat down. It was very muddy, slippery and overgrown, but not steep.

If heading back to Rt 145, I highly recommend stopping at Beave Brook Falls. Absolutely beautiful.
