Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: The crossing at Lary Brook Road, at the road, is impassible. It's easily 10ft deep. However if you travel south east along Larry Brook, it becomes braided and there are two beaver dams that can be traversed with little effort.

Comments
Comments: A FINE day in the forest was had. Not super challenging. We began taking a very obvious log line due south (as seen on aerials). I reviewed my track, it was almost dead south from the car to the summit. Nothing really that thick, easy moving. On the way out we retraced and then headed in a general NW direction towards other logging lines to Larry Brook Road. We generally where able to stay on old skid lines for the majority of this hike. We got sucked into the other side of a log cut and had a little fight to get out but nothing major. On the way out on Larry Brook Road, we found a matched set of antlers just sitting there next to eachother - in pretty good shape! We stashed them and then continued to Black Mountain - Northeast. Nothing really of note here. Pretty run of the mill, you do enough of them, they all look kind of the same. 4.7 miles, about 3:10 on the clock. It was hot, so the pace was a little on the slower side
