|
 | Date of Hike: |
Wednesday, June 17, 2026 |
|
 | Parking/Access Road Notes: |
There were 3 cars in the lot when I arrived and about 10 or so when I finished and there was still plenty of room to park. There are now TWO porta potties available and the one I used was clean and well stocked. |
|
 | Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Wet Trail, Standing/Running Water on Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
 | Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
 | Water Crossing Notes: |
I used the handy log over the water crossing and it worked great. |
|
 | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
There are a few blowdowns on Blueberry Ledges and on Dicey's Mill trail. All are fairly easy step overs. |
|
 | Dog-Related Notes: |
I saw one good doggo heading up Dicey's Mill as I was on my way out. The ledges on Blueberry Ledges trail may be tricky for less experienced puppers but the rest of the trails will be smooth sailing. There are not many options for water until you are climbing up Passaconaway so bring extra water for your dogs. |
|
 | Bugs: |
I have no clue how this happened but it was another bug free hike. I expect to get slammed the next time I am out. No one, especially me, gets this lucky 3 days in a row. |
|
 | Lost and Found: |
I found one blue peanut M&M. I think it was out all night because when I picked it up, it turned my fingers blue and was covered in dirt. :( So sad. |

 | Comments: |
Of all the times I have done this route this was by far the best. The ledges were dry and grippy and no gymnastics were needed. The bulk of the rocks were dry and the mud was minimal. Conditions allowed for moving faster and I had good footing for most of the day. I saw 13 friendly and happy hikers and 1 dog. There is water following near the campsites as you ascend Passaconaway that can be filtered. This was just one of those days where I hiked all day with a goofy smile on my face because I was just so happy! Let those ledges dry out after tomorrow's rain and you should have smooth sailing! |
