Comments
Comments: Trails in good shape, some wet spots here and there but usually rock step options through them. A few areas of old oak leaves mixed with lots of acorns made for some roller skating opportunities.

Quiet day on the trails, saw one person, heard a couple others on top of Anna, otherwise peace.

Tried to cut through a dirt road off Old Stage Rd to skirt a wetland to Yellow and Blue Merge Tr for Mt. Shannon but high water kept us on old stage Rd to Orange Tr from a higher/drier cut through.

Always pleasant wandering on the Belknap Trails. Thanks to the maintainers.
