We drove up New Colony Road from Orange Basin (Orange, NH). Gate was open. Road got very rough about a quarter mile from gate. Not bad much of the way but a minor washout about halfway to trailhead/log landing. Road WAY too rough for even a subaru any more. Saw 1 Tacoma parked near us at col and one other Taco driving northbound. Was fine in Jeep :) |

Perfect day for this nice out-and-back to Cardigan. Cilley's Cave still fun. Hanging Rock still amazing. Crowds not too bad on Cardigan. Very distant views!!!! |
