| Comments: |
This was a backpacking trip. First day (5/26)on Unknown Pond to Kilkenny ridge to Willard Notch was very warm but the bugs were manageble. Second day (5/27)from Willard Notch to Starr King was buggy and cooler. There was lots of down trees from Willard to Starr King. Super nice weather and not many people in the North but it was a bummer to see that peoples cars were broken into at the end of the trip though. |
