Comments
Comments: Trails were mostly dry. Minor mud on Carlton Notch Trail and Castleview Loop. Short section of Jimtown Logging Road between Carlton Notch and Mt. Crescent Trail was very muddy. Bottom of Carlton Notch Trail (between Randolph Road and Mt. Crescent Trail) is filled with broken cars. Poked around briefly, but did not find Boothman Spring Spur on this side.



Foliage is now past peak in Franconia Notch, Twin and Northern Presis, but some nice colors along the trails.
