 | Comments: |
Mostly reporting to let people know the blowdowns have been cleaned up on Kilkenny! Hiked up the north branch of Unknown Pond Trail (gem) and set up camp at the tentsite at noon before out-and-backing to Cabot. Tentsite has five established sites, a composting privy, and a bear box. Awesome overnight celebrating the 4th with the kiddos. |
