| Comments: |
Trails are well maintained and dry right now. No ice or snow in the trails at all. Minor mud in some spots, but easily avoided. Great loop through the woods. Great views at Mount Major, and some decent peek out views or slab views throughout the trek. Once off of Mount Major section, I only ran into a few people out by Mount Mack and Klem until getting back towards the Mount Major section.
Highly recommend these peaks for people looking to avoid mud season in the White Mountains right now. |
