![Trail Maintenance Notes](../icons1/iconsaw.gif) | Trail Maintenance Notes: |
The south section of the Shenipsit Connector that used to lead to Boulder Junction has been rerouted and now joins the Shenipsit Trail a little north of Boulder Junction. A few large trees are down in spots, likely from the recent wind storm as my local trail had damage done on 4/2 or 4/3. |

Great day to be out, saw several people either solo or just a couple. At Case Mountain, there were a couple of small groups of three or four, they could have been families. People did practice social distancing. |
