| Comments: |
Really terrific morning - just basically misted - never downpoured. Beautiful lush green woods more than made up for the continuous mud pit. On the descent, once I was back at the Three Ponds Trail, I debated whether to do the loop past the shelter but decided I was pressing my luck with the rain so I decided to just do a quick out-and-back of the south portion of the Mt Kineo Trail - one of my favorite trails. I went as far as the sno machine trail/mudpit and turned around. |
