| Comments: |
Very nice, totally clear, dry, windless day for a late November hike up Paugus. Long views through the trees. Coming back down Lawrence, we went past the intersection with Kelley over to the four trail junction, and took Old Mast Road down to Ferncroft. OMR is a breeze - very fast descent, without a lot of leaf collections to slow us. Overall, a nice outing for a few of us OTHH. |
