 | Comments: |
Beautiful day, only saw one other hiker at the very end. Lots of leaves all over the trail, as expected, but just watch your footing. Old Paugus trail scramble was a little tough and required some upper body strength to get up. We lost the trail briefly right after the scramble but reconnected with it quickly. |
