|
| Trail Maintenance Notes: |
At the bottom of the Ledge Trail, a wooden sign says that the distance to Pinkham B Rd. is 0.6 mi, but the White Mountain Guide says it's 0.9 mi, which seems correct, so the sign should be corrected.
The signs for the side paths to the three outlooks just north of the summit seem to be missing. |
|
| Dog-Related Notes: |
Should be fine. |
|
| Bugs: |
Surprisingly, they didn't seem to be biting. |

| Comments: |
The large rock slabs on Ledge Trail were mostly dry. The most impressive view is from Pinkham Ledge on Ledge Trail, about 0.2 miles below the summit. |
