Some step overs and walk unders throughout the trails. Bog bridges are all rotted but usable with caution. |

 | Comments: |
I did the hike C'CW. Lots of mud sections, especially in the low areas of the ups and downs on the ridge of Sandwich Tr. after the steeps. Bog bridges here are totally gone. Large mud sections on Drakes Brook in the half mile before the crossing. Only saw a few others on the trail today. All in all a legitimate hike. |
