 | Comments: |
The trails were mostly dry although the surfaces were damp at higher elevations. I did not find the wet surfaces to be slippery. No ice or snow on the trails. A light snow on the vegetation above 4,000 feet. The greatest amount of water on the trail was between the Rollins Trail and the East Loop on the Dicey's Mill Trail.
Saw only two hikers all day. One from CT and the other from Ottawa.
Views to the south and east from outlooks on the Walden Trail near the summit. From both the east and west outlook ledges it was obvious the high peaks to the north were enshrouded in clouds, so I didn't bother to hike to the north outlook. On a day with good visibility, it is worth the effort to walk down to the north outlook.
Lots of leaves down low on the Dicey's Mill Trail that could potentially hide rocks and roots. I had no problem today. |
