Season two at Pawtuckaway State Park got underway today with a patrol of Mountain Trail, the most heavily used route in the park. So far, things are looking MUCH better than this time last year.
Mountain Trail was the wettest of the bunch today, and it's usually pretty wet this time of year. But I got the drainages going and the water was flowing off the trail. This trail needs some water bars rebuilt and hopefully we can get to that this year.
A lovely day in the park with cool temps and bright sun. Several other folks were out enjoying the nice day. |
