 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
The 4.5 miles on Mill Brook Rd. (gravel) was pretty smooth. Grabbed a spot on Mill Brook Rd. on the other side of the bridge just past the trailhead. There is space for 3 vehicles...possibly 4 if you squeeze them in. |

No issues, not many stepovers. |

On Unknown Pond Trail, a couple of small trees that could easily be cut with a hand saw. On Kilkenny Ridge Trail, a large tree came down (herd path being formed to go around it). Both trails were easy to follow with good footing. |

 | Comments: |
Great day to be out and the trails were in good shape. Unknown Pond was a nice place to take a break. And the Horn offers nearly 360-degree views from the top. Other than that, it's one step at a time. Never overly steep with mostly good footing.
Hot July day with temperatures in the 80s. |
