Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes: .4 miles down Scott Road. Great parking lot. WMG said a small lot, but it looks like Chocorua Conservation redid the lot. They have asked not to park on the wood chips. They have been placed to protect the soft ground. This lot is for the Conservation land across the road as well.

Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Easy rock hops.  
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Good signs. A few blowdowns, mostly in the first half mile. Some blazes are fading, but the trail is very obvious. Thanks. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Only water I saw was the stream at the beginning. Make sure you have enough for your dog.  
Bugs
Bugs: Mosquitoes were horrible in the beginning. Faded away as the day went on  
Lost and Found
Lost and Found: Someone found sunglasses. They blended in where they had placed them, so I hung them on a sign. 
 
Comments
Comments: First of all, Bald Mountain is no longer bald. Two hikers coming down said they weren't sure they found it but according to the book, you walk right over it. Trees have been growing around it, but there are a few obstructed voews.

Did this trail for tracing. It was a haul up to where it meets the Weetamoo Trail. Then it gets delightful. A lot of relatively flat gentle sections with many ledges with good views. Turned around where it meets the Liberty Trail.
