Comments
Comments: Trail in good condition overall. Light rain made the slide very slippery on the way up. We took the Brutus Bushwack on the way down to avoid the slick conditions. Also skipped the second crossing of Lincoln Brook by bushwacking to Black pond trail. This shaved off almost a mile of the total trip.
