Camel's Hump Road in excellent condition. Caretaker at top said that issues over who maintained it (town or state) had been resolved and that upper part had been recently graded. There is a new (since last time I was there) one way bridge along River Road with cautionary stop signs at each end. |

| Comments: |
Lower half of Monroe Tr. very dry. Dean Tr. had a few wet spots. Long Trail had some slick rocks to deal with; more so on the North side. Upper half of Monroe Tr. had some running water and slick rocks. Nice day on top; summit count at 150 probably came close to 200 as more going up late in the day. Nice loop with a variety of conditions. |
