| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
|
|
| Surface Conditions: |
Dry Trail, Mud - Minor/Avoidable |
|
| Recommended Equipment: |
|
|
| 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: |
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: |
|
|
| 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: |
An OTHH 52 with a View, but limited, although quite interesting, as was using Kelley Trail for part of the access. |
