Comments
Comments: This was a nice day for a loop in the Belknaps since all the WMNF reports scared me away. :)

There is wet trail in a lot of places with lots of standing water but minimal ice and snow. I barebooted in waterproof boots but rock spikes would be appropriate as well.

My dog completed his Belknap Range Peaks and is 93% done with his trace of these wonderful trails!
