 | Comments: |
The new Welton Falls Trail (North) is almost a year old -- it was blazed last fall, prior to trees leafing in. That said, now that it's summer, some minor line-of-site clipping/brushing is in order. We'll get to that in the next week, along with the foot-long trippy root punji (that I keep seeing and make a mental note to remove) about 0.1 miles north of the intersection with the Elwell Trail. |
