Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: Trails are in need of some brushing. Really grown in as you near Webster Slide mountain but still easy to follow. A few minor blowdowns 2 of of which have paths going around them. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Easy dog trail. From the southern starting point on Wachipauka Pond trail there is a small stream right away for water. The only other water was at the Hairy Root Spring. You will need to carry water. 
Bugs
Bugs: Not bad till we hit the Webster Slide trail. For that stretch the bugs were bad. Black flies, skeeters, and a few deer flies. They were buzzing on Webster Slide peak but not bothering us. We were back at the car at 10:30 so I don't know if they got worse with the days heat.

Comments
