 | Comments: |
Loop over Mt. Ingalls and Mt. Cabot (not the 4k, but the Half Pint in Shelburne).
Trails had generally good footing. Some mud on lower Scudder and Red trails, otherwise dry. Grassy lower portions of trails would be unpleasant in wet conditions and in tick season, but its not too tall nonetheless.
Excellent views above the Judson Pond Trail junction (Scudder-Cabot connector) from the Scudder Trail, as well as the view loop on Cabot. |
