Comments
Comments: Wet trail.
Snowing and raining.
Snow up high, windy.
Didn't stay long up at summit.
Too windy to climb tower, nothing to see anyway.
Nice to warm up with GMC caretakers in hut at the top. Didn't know there was one there, thanks Hugh and Gerry.
7 miles, less than 4-1/2 hours.
Nice mild trail, only 1300 ft of elevation gain. Didn't realize that we were at the top since there was not any tough steep section.
Great beaver pond in the lower section before crossing the International Paper Access Road
