Parking/Access Road Notes
Parking/Access Road Notes:  
Surface Conditions
Surface Conditions: Dry Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable 
Recommended Equipment
Recommended Equipment:  
Water Crossing Notes
Water Crossing Notes: Oliverian Brook crossings could use some clearing up, particularly a blow down blocking stepping rocks on Square Ledge Branch. 
Trail Maintenance Notes
Trail Maintenance Notes: WODC does a great job keeping up with nature. However, Square Ledge between 4-Way and SLB is due for some work on old blow downs that were a nuisance. Short 'herd' path to left hand ledge outlook could use some trimming for safety and convenience. 
Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes:  
Bugs
Bugs: Most of these trails rated at 15 cob webs per 0.1 mile. Am waiting for someone to come out with (head mounted?) web catcher. How long does it take for a spider to rebuild? Not very, as two passes on Lawrence will attest.

Comments
Comments: An OTHH 52 with a View, but limited, although quite interesting, as was using Kelley Trail for part of the access.
